The Eggvin Bank is a shallow area located on the northern segment of Kolbeinsey Ridge. Its crustal structure was investigated along a 301 km long transect from the Greenland Basin to the Iceland Plateau, crossing over the Jan Mayen Fracture Zone and the Eggvin Bank. P- and S-wave velocities were obt...
