Subsequent to a widespread hiatus at the top of the Permian on western Svalbard, the Triassic Vardebukta, Tvillingodden and Bravaisberget formations were deposited. In this thesis, the sedimentology, geochemistry and diagenesis are investigated to determine the depositional environment and basinal s...
