The Permo-Carboniferous Oslo Rift through Six Stages and 65 Million Years
TL;DR: The Oslo Rift is the northernmost part of the Rotliegendes basin system in Europe and was formed by lithospheric stretching north of the Tornquist fault system and is related tectonically and in time to the Variscan orogeny as discussed by the authors.
The Upper Carboniferous-Permian Oslo Rift; Basin Fill in Relation to Tectonic Development
TL;DR: In this paper, a six phase development model from pre-rift to termination phase has been derived for the Permo-Carboniferous Oslo Rift, an en echelon graben system, was created by east-west extension partly caused by dextral movement along the Sorgenfrei-Tornquist-Teissure Zone.
