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 …

The breakup of Pangaea was accompanied by extensive, episodic, magmatic activity.
Several Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) formed, such as the Central Atlantic Magmatic …

It is now more than 50 years since Tuzo Wilson published his paper asking 'Did the Atlantic
close and then re-open?'. This led to the 'Wilson Cycle'concept in which the repeated …

In the context of rift basin formation, structural inheritance describes the influence of pre-
existing structures on new rift-related structures, including faults. Pre-existing structures in …

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

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

Continental breakup between Greenland and North America produced the small oceanic
basins of the Labrador Sea and Baffin Bay, which are connected via the Davis Strait, a …

The control of normal fault growth by preexisting basement structures is still a worldwide
matter of debate. The objectives of the present study are (i) to investigate where rift faults …

Passive margins are the locus of tectonic and magmatic processes leading to the formation
of highly variable along-strike and conjugate margins structures. Using extensive new …

Abstract Mesozoic‐Cenozoic rifting between Greenland and North America created the
Labrador Sea and Baffin Bay, while leaving preserved continental lithosphere in the Davis …
