Abstract
From May 21-27, 1999, a wide-angle seismic experiment was carried out in the Skagerrak Graben. The experiment was a combined effort of the department of Geology, University of Oslo and Geomar, Kiel (as partners in the EU-TMR project: Permo-Carboniferous Rifting in Europe (PCR) - Magmatism, Geodynamics and Thermal Evolution of the Lithosphere), the Geological Institute, University of Copenhagen (Denmark) and the Geophysical Institute, University of Hamburg (Germany). The involvement of the University of Hamburg made it possible that the off-shore part of the experiment could be carried out from the R/V VALDIVIA, during cruise VAL-175, which was used for teaching purposes at that time. Air-gun shooting as well as two landshots were used for seismic source, while recording was done at sea as well as on land
