In this study we compare three pairs of conjugate rifted margins that are often referred to as
archetypes of rift systems. Despite numerous differences, a remarkable first-order structural …

The evolution of sedimentary environments in the Norwegian continental margin since the
Early Carboniferous is directly linked with the evolution of the tectonic framework of the …

We focus on the southern North Atlantic rifted margins to investigate the partitioning and
propagation of deformation in hyperextended rift systems using plate kinematic modeling …

In the preceding chapters we have included only a few regional examples and case studies
because of space limitations. The present chapter will, however, provide some examples …

The world's 877 giant oil and gas fields are those with 500 million bbl of ultimately
recoverable oil or gas equivalent. Remarkably, almost all of these 877 giant fields, which by …

The Norwegian North Atlantic rift system contains not only one of Europe's largest offshore
hydrocarbon provinces, but also one of Europe's most investigated mountain belts, the …

To date, research on neotectonics and related continental topography development has
mostly focused on active plate boundaries characterized by generally high deformation …

Eocene magmatic breakup along the mid‐Norway rifted margin was preceded by extreme
Jurassic‐Cretaceous crustal thinning in a magma‐poor environment. Along the SE borders …

Production, transport, and deposition of siliciclastic sediments takes place across changing
altitudes, physical processes, environments, and controls en route from source to sink …
