Fault-controlled hydration of the upper mantle during continental rifting
The mechanisms for mantle hydration are unclear. Seismic images offshore from Spain reveal a correlation between the amount of seawater-altered rocks and the extent of fault slip, suggesting that faults contro...

Evolution of magma-poor continental margins from rifting to seafloor spreading
The rifting of continents involves faulting (tectonism) and magmatism, which reflect the strain-rate and temperature dependent processes of solid–state deformation and decompression melting within the Earth1,2. M...

Accurate Modelling of Sonobuoy Refraction Data to Determine Velocity Variations in Oceanic Crust
Modern disposable sonobuoys can provide a simple and cost-effective alternative to ocean bottom seismometers for marine refraction experiments over oceanic crust. Unfortunately, the fact that they are free to ...

Structure of Atlantic Oceanic Crust Around Chron M16 from Deep Seismic Reflection Profiles
Deep seismic images around isochron M16 (142 Ma) are presented from three different sites on both flanks of the North Atlantic ocean. The similarity of the acquisition parameters and of the reflective patterns...
