The evolution of the Northern Hemisphere oceanic gateways has facilitated ocean
circulation changes and may have influenced climatic variations in the Cenozoic time (66 …

The breakup of Laurasia to form the Northeast Atlantic Realm disintegrated an
inhomogeneous collage of cratons sutured by cross-cutting orogens. Volcanic rifted margins …

The timing and duration of surface uplift associated with large igneous provinces provide
important constraints on mantle convection processes. Here we review geological indicators …

Convective circulation of the mantle causes deflections of the Earth's surface that vary as a
function of space and time. Accurate measurements of this dynamic topography are …

This book provides a summary of geodynamic results from Iceland that presently are found
in a great number of scientific articles, but have not been collected before in a book. The …

In the North Atlantic Ocean, flow of North Atlantic Deep Water (NADW), and of its ancient
counterpart Northern Component Water (NCW), across the Greenland‐Scotland Ridge …

Abstract The Norwegian-Greenland Sea (NGS) in the NE Atlantic comprises diverse tectonic
regimes and structural features including sub-oceanic basins of different ages …

Hot spot–mid‐ocean ridge interactions cause many of the largest structural and chemical
anomalies in Earth's ocean basins. Correlated geophysical and geochemical anomalies are …

Several primary features of the Iceland region require a posteriori adaptions of the classical
plume hypothesis to explain them, which erodes confidence in this model. These include the …

Based on observations in both the laboratory and the Earth, we develop the hypothesis that
plate boundaries are lubricated by networks of melt‐rich shear zones. Such lubrication …
