Field report for LORITA (Lomonosov Ridge Test of Appurtenance) / H. Ruth Jackson, Trine Dahl-Jensen, editors. : M183-2/5391E-PDF

The goal of LORITA was to perform a test of appurtenance, on the Lomonosov Ridge in regard to continental shelf of Greenland/Ellesmere Island. This investigation is based on conditions of Article 76 of the United Nations Convention on Law of the Sea. To do this assessment we acquired wide angle seismic reflection/refraction profiles along a 440 km long line (from inner to outer most shot) from the near the coast onto the Lomonosov Ridge and a cross line of 100 km length in the trough between the shelf break and the Lomonosov Ridge. These profiles will give us information on the crustal structure from the inner shelf, across the bathymetric trough and onto the Lomonosov Ridge proper. ...
