Listening to the Earth
NORSAR is an internationally recognized independent research foundation. We specialize in seismology and seismic monitoring.
NORSAR will lead a newly funded research project on Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS). Together with partners, the project has been allocated funds from the Norwegian Research Council and will take us one step closer to safe storage of CO2.
NORSAR is leading a new EU project with Oslo municipality and partners from six European countries. The goal is to enhance assessment of disaster risks and improve multi-hazard risk management and governance.
NORSAR recently published a new and digital earthquake zoning map for Norway. This means that developers and society at large can save billions of NOK on large development projects in the years to come.
