The end-Triassic mass extinction (ETE;~ 201.6 million years ago) led to dramatic changes in
terrestrial ecosystems including the extinction of several seed-plant groups. Among the most …

The sub-basalt domain of the Norwegian continental shelf (NCS) is one of the last remaining
hydrocarbon exploration frontiers in Europe. While there is an established geological and …

The formation of the NE Atlantic conjugate margins is the result of multiple rifting phases
spanning from the Late Paleozoic and culminating in the early Eocene when breakup was …

The paleoenvironmental and paleogeographic development of the Norwegian–Greenland
seaway remains poorly understood, despite its importance for the oceanographic and …

The groundwork for the northeast Atlantic opening was laid during the latest Jurassic to mid-
Cenozoic. The period is well-investigated on the Norwegian and UK continental margins at …

The Møre and Vøring basins at the mid-Norwegian margin were affected by a series of rift
phases separated by periods of tectonic quiescence from Caledonian collapse in the …

The opening of the North Atlantic about 56 My ago was associated with the emplacement of
the North Atlantic Igneous Province, including the deposition of voluminous extrusive …

A key objective of Expedition 396 was to constrain the role of breakup volcanism on the
Paleocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM). For a long time, it has been argued that …

While basaltic volcanism is dominant during rifting and continental breakup, felsic
magmatism may be a significant component of some rift margins. During International Ocean …

Volcanostratigraphic and igneous province mapping of the Jan Mayen microcontinent
(JMMC) and Iceland Plateau Rift (IPR) region have provided new insight into the …
