A seismic refraction and reflection tomography experiment was performed across the igneous province east of Svalbard which is a part of the Cretaceous High Arctic Large Igneous Province. Seismic travel times from 12 ocean bottom seismometers/hydrophones deployed along a 170 km line are inverted to p...
