A crustal model of a 322 km long transect from the Knipovich Ridge to Bear Island (Bjørnøya) has been obtained by use of reflection seismic data and wide angle Ocean Bottom Seismometer (OBS) data. Further constraints of the model have been provided by gravity modeling. The study is part of the IPY (...
