Journal ArticleDOI
The norwegian–greenland sea continental margins: morphology and late quaternary sedimentary processes and environment
Tore O. Vorren,Jan Sverre Laberg,Frank Blaume,Julian A. Dowdeswell,Neil H. Kenyon,Jürgen Mienert,Jan Rumohr,Friedrich Werner +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors give an overview of the morphology and the processes responsible for the formation of three main groups of morphological features: slides, trough mouth fans and channels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Slope failure dynamics and impacts from seafloor and shallow sub-seafloor geophysical data: case studies from the COSTA project
Miquel Canals,Galderic Lastras,Roger Urgeles,J. L. Casamor,Jürgen Mienert,Antonio Cattaneo,M. De Batist,Haflidi Haflidason,Y. Imbo,Jan Sverre Laberg,Jacques Locat,D. Long,Oddvar Longva,Douglas G. Masson,Nabil Sultan,Fabio Trincardi,Petter Bryn +16 more
TL;DR: A review and update from original data and literature reports the current state of knowledge of Storegga, Traenadjupet and Finneidfjord slides from the mid-Norwegian margin, Afen Slide from the Faeroe-Shetland Channel, BIG'95 Slide and Central Adriatic Deformation Belt (CADEB) from continental slope and inner continental shelf settings off the Ebro and Po rivers in the Mediterranean Sea, Canary Slide west of the westernmost, youngest Canary Islands and Gebra Slide off the northern tip of the Antarctic Peninsula
Journal ArticleDOI
The Storegga Slide: architecture, geometry and slide development
Haflidi Haflidason,Hans Petter Sejrup,Atle Nygård,Jürgen Mienert,Petter Bryn,R. Lien,Carl Fredrik Forsberg,K. Berg,Doug G. Masson +8 more
TL;DR: The detailed mapping of the Storegga Slide morphological elements and the analyses of the slide development are based on high-quality acoustic and sampling data sets acquired through a cooperation between academia and the petroleum industry as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Triggering mechanisms of slope instability processes and sediment failures on continental margins: a geotechnical approach
Nabil Sultan,Pierre Cochonat,Miquel Canals,Antonio Cattaneo,Bernard Dennielou,Haflidi Haflidason,Jan Sverre Laberg,D. Long,Jürgen Mienert,Fabio Trincardi,Roger Urgeles,Tore O. Vorren,C.K. Wilson +12 more
TL;DR: In this article, different slope failures events from different parts of the Costa target areas, which reflect diverse triggering mechanisms, were analysed to identify the geotechnical response of the sediment to different external mechanisms (earthquake, rapid sedimentation and gas hydrate melting).
Journal ArticleDOI
Ocean warming and gas hydrate stability on the mid-Norwegian margin at the Storegga Slide
Jürgen Mienert,Maarten Vanneste,Stefan Bünz,Karin Andreassen,Haflidi Haflidason,Hans Petter Sejrup +5 more
TL;DR: The sensitivity of oceanic gas hydrates and submarine slope stability to the combined forcing of sea level changes and bottom water perturbation is a critical issue for risk assessment in the Storegga Slide area on the mid-Norwegian margin this article.
