The paleo-Loppa High in the SW Barents Sea is a ridge structure, which developed during the late Paleozoic when the earliest phase of the Atlantic rifting between Greenland and Norway occurred. The southwest of the Barents Sea, located at the northern margin of Pangaea during the Carboniferous and P...
