Twenty-five years after the last ODP (Ocean Drilling Program) leg on these volcanic margins, the reasons for excess melting are still disputed with at least three competing hypotheses being discussed. We are proposing a new drilling campaign that will constrain the timing, rates of volcanism, and vertical movements of rifted margins. This will allow us to parameterise geodynamic models that can distinguish between the hypotheses. Furthermore, the drilling-derived data will help us to understand the role of breakup magmatism as a potential driver for the Palaeocene-Eocene thermal maximum (PETM) and its influence on the oceanographic circulation in the earliest phase of the northeast Atlantic Ocean formation. Tackling these questions with a new drilling campaign in the northeast Atlantic region will advance our understanding of the long-term interactions between tectonics, volcanism, oceanography, and climate and the functioning of subpolar northern ecosystems and climate during intervals of extreme warmth. © Author(s) 2019. 2019 English 18168957 10.5194/sd-26-69-2019 Scientific Drilling 26 Copernicus GmbH 69-85 GEOMAR, Kiel, 24218, Germany; Centre for Earth Evolution and Dynamics, Department of Geosciences, University of Oslo, Oslo, 0315, Norway; VBPR, Oslo, 0349, Norway; School of Ocean and Earth Sciences, University of Southampton, Southampton, SO14 3ZH, United Kingdom; Department of Earth Science, University of Bergen, Bergen, 5007, Norway; Department of Earth Sciences, Utrecht University, Utrecht, 3584, Netherlands; DougalEARTH Ltd, Solihull, B91 3NU, United Kingdom; Department of Geoscience, University of Aarhus, Aarhus, 8000, Denmark; Department of Geological Sciences, Stockholm University, Stockholm, 106 91, Sweden; Geological Survey of Norway, Trondheim, 7040, Norway Geodynamics; Infill drilling; Volcanoes, Geodynamic models; Long-term interaction; North East Atlantic; Northeast Atlantic Ocean; Ocean drilling programs; Oceanographic circulation; Paleogene climate; Vertical movement, Climate change https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85076097338&doi=10.5194%2fsd-26-69-2019&partnerID=40&md5=f55f1ce6b7f0291a9f9da7370c01634e cited By 3 C.
