1. Precambrian and Caledonian history of Svalbard’s West Ny Friesland Terrane
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals mainly with age-investigations of metasedimentary and magmatic rocks of Ny Friesland, located in the northeastern Svalbard. However, the provenance of quartz-porphyry clasts in a Devonian conglomerate have also been investigated in northwestern Svalbard. LÄS MER
2. Eurasian Arctic Tectonics: Geology of Severnaya Zemlya (North Kara Terrane) and Relationships to the Timanide Margin of Baltica
Sammanfattning : The North Kara Terrane (NKT), with Severnaya Zemlya as its main outcrop area, constitutes the Palaeozoic and older rocks of the northern part of the Kara Shelf. Potential field data suggest a continuation into the eastern Barents Shelf. LÄS MER
3. Geophysical studies of the upper crust of the central Swedish Caledonides in relation to the COSC scientific drilling project
Sammanfattning : The Collisional Orogeny in the Scandinavian Caledonides (COSC) project aims to provide a deeper understanding of mountain belt dynamics through scientific deep drilling in the central parts of the mountain belt of western Sweden. The main targets include a subduction related allochthon, the basal orogenic detachment and the underlying partially subducted Precambrian basement. LÄS MER
4. Assembly of the Caledonian Orogenic Wedge, Jämtland, Sweden
Sammanfattning : Collisional orogeny creates the largest mountain belts on Earth. The Caledonides of Scandinavia are a deeply eroded, ancient mountain belt, which today exposes a deep section through the former orogenic interior. LÄS MER
5. The Köli Nappe complex in Tännforsfältet western Jämtland, Swedish Caledonides
Sammanfattning : This dissertation presents the Köli Nappe Complex of Tännforsfältet, an area of some 1200 km2 of volcano-sedimentary eugeoclinal rocks occurring in a shallow synformal basin, the Tännforsen Synform. The rocks have been metamorphosed under greenschist-lower amphibolite facies conditions. LÄS MER
