Collision between Baltica and Laurentia in Siluro Devonian time resulted in a stack of thrust
sheets, the Caledonides of Scandinavia and East Greenland, which were amalgamated and …

Extensional structures characterize significant parts of the North Atlantic Caledonides.
Silurian extensional deformation took place, particularly in the heated crust in the southern …

Direct dating of ductile shear zones and calculation of uplift/exhumation rates can be done
using various radiometric dating techniques. But radiometric dating of shallow crustal …

Many rifts develop through multiphase extension; it can be difficult, however, to determine
how strain is distributed during reactivation because structural and stratigraphic evidence …

Abstract The northern North Sea region has experienced repeated phases of post-
Caledonian extension, starting with extensional reactivation of the low-angle basal …

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 …

Tectonic lineaments of the Norwegian mainland have been outlined and characterised in a
new lineament map of Norway. The underlay is a natio nal coverage of Landsat TM 7 …

Abstract The Proterozoic crystalline Lindås nappe of the Bergen arc, Caledonides of
western Norway, displays local Caledonian eclogite facies overprint along fractures and …

We employ U–Pb calcite dating of structurally-controlled fracture fills within crystalline
Caledonian basement in western Norway to reveal subtle large-scale tectonic events that …

Abstract Late orogenic, Early to Middle Devonian extension in the Scandinavian
Caledonides was unidirectional in western Norway. New data from two detachment zones …
