A prominent lower crustal high-velocity layer observed in the Vøring Basin, NE Atlantic, has been investigated with regard to composition and spatial link to crustal-scale lineaments. In …
Eocene magmatic breakup along the mid‐Norway rifted margin was preceded by extreme Jurassic‐Cretaceous crustal thinning in a magma‐poor environment. Along the SE borders …

The thermal evolution of continental rifted margins is key to understanding margin subsidence and hydrocarbon prospectivity. Observed heat-flow values, however, do not …
A model of the thermal, compositional, density, and seismological structure of the lithospheric and sublithospheric mantle along a 500-km transect across the Namibian …
Transform marginal plateaus (TMPs) are large and flat structures commonly found in deep oceanic domains, but their origin and relationship to adjacent oceanic lithosphere remain …
