The post-conference field trip:

This field trip will highlight the large scale geological variations in the Faroe Island Basalt Group (FIBG) set in relation to the observed geophysical heterogeneities. The architecture of the various lava flow types will be studied in the field, and short talks on the geophysical interpretations of these, based on scientific onshore wells, will be given on site.
