SeIsmicity and neOtectonics of the LAptev sea region (SIOLA)
We want to study one of only very few examples of transition between oceanic and continental rifting, the Laptev Sea, because it is unusual. Generally, rifting processes are associated with focused earthquake and also magmatic activity, whereas the Laptev Sea shows diffuse seismicity and is amagmati...

| Summary: | We want to study one of only very few examples of transition between oceanic and continental rifting, the Laptev Sea, because it is unusual. Generally, rifting processes are associated with focused earthquake and also magmatic activity, whereas the Laptev Sea shows diffuse seismicity and is amagmatic. This project will study the recent geodynamics and reconstruct Cenozoic rift evolution based on existing seismic data. |
