      Four cores from 1200 m water depth from Vestnesa Ridge on the western Svalbard margin in the eastern Fram Strait were studied for their content of fossil macro-faunas. Three of the cores were collected from a pockmark with active methane seepage, and one core (control core) was taken just outside the seepage area for comparison. Together the cores cover the last 45 000 years (mid-late Weichselian ...
    • Depositional environment, ichnological features and oxygenation of Permian to earliest Triassic marine sediments in central Spitsbergen, Svalbard 

      Uchman, Alfred; Hanken, Nils-Martin; Nielsen, Jesper Kresten; Grundvåg, Sten-Andreas; Piasecki, Stefan (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      Late Early Permian–lowermost Triassic carbonate, siliceous (spiculites) and clastic marine sediments in the Marmierfjellet area (Isfjorden, central Spitsbergen) contain a relatively diverse and abundant trace fossil assemblage providing important information about the depositional processes. The Vøringen Member (Late Artinskian–Kungurian) of the Kapp Starostin Formation (Late Artinskian–? Changhsingian) ...
    • First record of catacrinid crinoid from the Lower Permian of Spitsbergen 

      Gorzelak, Przemyslaw; Blazejowski, Blazej; Uchman, Alfred; Hanken, Nils-Martin (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      An early Permian (late Artinskian–Roadian) cladid crinoid (Catacrinidae gen. et sp. indet.) is reported for the first time from the Vøringen Member of the Kapp Starostin Formation of Spitsbergen. The specimen is partly articulated and preserves a considerable part of its stalk and a complete cup, but only the proximal portions of its arms. Thus, it can− not be identified with any degree of ...
