The North Atlantic provides classic examples of volcanic rifted continental margins but in such regions flood basalt sequences provide a challenge to deep seismic imaging. High-quality, wide-angle, ocean-bottom seismometer (OBS) data have been acquired with a low frequency (9 Hz) seismic source acro...
