Abstract
The table is based on literature studies and hearsay, and shows locations where possible neotectonic movements have been reported in Norway. Site investigations carried out at Yrkje indicate possible postglacial movements of 6–13m vertically across a NNE-SSE trending fault. In addition, investigations of possible fault movements are being carried out based on geophysical surveys of upper sediments along the Skitfjord pipeline trail.
