Southern Norwegian Sea Surveys.
The study of processes of crustal formation and the structural and morphologic expression of seafloor created at mid-oceanic spreading centers is a focus of research by marine geologists, geophysicists and acousticians, and is of direct relevance as well to studies of physical oceanography, marine c...
