The geophysical implications of minimal Tertiary motion along Nares Strait

In the light of the geological evidence indicating less than 25 km of left-lateral offset along the Wegener Fault in Nares Strait, we examined three models for the formation of Baffin Bay which do not involve sea-floor spreading in that region.
