The research activities at the department are mainly focused on: Polar Marine Geology & Geophysics, Solid Earth Science, and Coastal & Terrestrial Geosciences.
The department has many large research and collaboration projects financed by The Research Council of Norway, EU and Norwegian Oil Companies. Our main activities in research are taking place in the Arctic regions, including waters off the Norwegian Coast to Svalbard and Eastern Greenland.
The research at the department is anchored in the following strategic areas:
- Ice- and ocean climate systems: Marine geology – Oceanography – Glaciology
- Natural resources in the Arctic
- Dynamics of the lithosphere
- Geohazards
- Coastal research
- Environmental geology in the Arctic
- Technology development
- Modelling
We have 17 projects at our unit:
Diagenesis of hydrocarbon-seep carbonates: Common patterns, divergent pathways and conceptual pitfalls
Controls of sediment-bound and dissolved nutrient transport from a glacierised metasedimentary catchment in the high Arctic
Seasonal sea ice characterized the glacial Arctic-Atlantic gateway over the past 750,000 years
CARBON AND OXYGEN ISOTOPE SIGNATURE OF HYDROTHERMAL MINERAL DEPOSITS IN A POST-COLLISIONAL MAGMATIC-HYDROTHERMAL SYSTEM: A REVIEW FROM NORTH MACEDONIA
