Development and fill of Upper Palaeozoic and Lower Mesozoic extensional basins in Svalbard and on the NW Barents shelf (Extensional basins )
The aim of this project is to examine the relationship between tectonically induced growth-faults and their geometry in relation to the development of accommodation space and facies belts in Upper Paleozoic and lower Mesozoic basins onshore/near shore Svalbard and on the northwestern part of the Barents Shelf.
