Abstract The North Atlantic, extending from the Charlie Gibbs Fracture Zone to the north Norway-Greenland-Svalbard margins, is regarded as both a classic case of structural …
Passive‐margin salt basins are classified as prerift, syn‐stretching, syn‐thinning, and syn‐ exhumation. Prerift salt, such as the Triassic Keuper in the Western Pyrenees, undergoes …

An updated magnetic anomaly grid of the NE Atlantic and an improved database of magnetic anomaly and fracture zone identifications allow the kinematic history of this region …
The idea of a simple linear boundary between continental and oceanic crust at extended continental margins is widely recognized to be an oversimplification. Despite this, such …
The fossil rift in the North Pyrenean Zone, which underwent high temperature‐low pressure metamorphism and alkaline magmatism during Early Cretaceous hyperextension, was …
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 …
