Detailed observations were made on the structural features associated with break-up, and the intense dike swarms were mapped and sampled in detail. A comprehensive collection was also made for the purpose of fission track studies designed to document vertical movements associated with the break-up event. A major dating programme is in progress at Oregon State University. Studies include integrated geochemical and geodynamic modelling related to lithospheric extension and partial melting. A pilot project has been carried out including recordings of teleseismic events on 24 broad band seismographs placed at 5 km intervals in Northern Zealand and Southwestern Sweden.
Initial data analyses show data of good quality.
Participants are from geoscience groups in 10 northern and central European countries.
