EPOS-N achievements

The main achievements of EPOS-N are:

  • Establishment of a data portal to provide access to and visualize data
  • Permanent integrated seismic and geodetic (GNSS) stations in Nordland
  • Temporary integrated seismic and geodetic (GNSS) stations on Svalbard
  • Improvement of the seismic and geodetic (GNSS) stations on Jan Mayen
  • Seismic array on Bear Island
  • Seismic array at Hornsund, Svalbard
  • Aeromagnetic survey of the Knipovich ridge area
  • Pool of ocean bottom seismographs
  • Fostering of improved collaboration within Solid Earth sciences
  • Collaboration with the European EPOS
