...Tine L. Rasmussen; Erik Thomsen; Laurent Labeyrie; Tjeerd C. E. van Weering Abstract A core from the margin of the Faeroe-Shetland Channel covering the last glacial period (58–10 ka) reveals a very detailed record of oscillations in benthic and planktic foraminifera, oxygen isotopes, and ice-rafted...

... of the North Atlantic system, and extension began in the late Middle Jurassic. The rift continues north-ward and underlies the Faeroe-Shetland Channel, but is offset at the Orkney-Faeroe alignment, a cross-cutting tectonic element of early Paleozoic age or older. Sediment distribution, thickness, and fades...

... dioxide storage as a liquid and hydrate. A computer program has been developed to calculate the depth to the base of the carbon dioxide and methane hydrate stability zones in two offshore regions: the FaeroeShetland Channel and the northern Rockall Trough. Results predict that methane hydrate remains...

... that can be traced from the Hebrides and West Shetland margins into the adjacent deep-water basins of the Rockall Trough and Faeroe-Shetland Channel. In the Rockall Trough, the unconformity is a submarine erosion surface that is dated as early Pliocene in age, between c. 3.85 and 4.5 Ma. On the Hebrides...

A tectonic model is thus emerging for the West Shetland region in which the main rift event responsible for establishing the Faeroe-Shetland basin system as a major sediment depocenter began in the mid-Cretaceous...
