Neotectonics in Norway, Annual Technical Report 1998

Abstract

The NEONOR project represents a national effort by several national researchand mapping institutions to study neotectonic phenomena through amultidisciplinary approach. Information on present land uplift, seismiticiy,rock stress and postglacial faults is compiled in a 1:3 million map of Norwayand adjacent areas. There is a good evidence for conjugate set of normalfaults perpendicular to the extensive system of NE-SW trending reverse faultsin northern Fennoscandia. (Forkortet)
