Why is Svalbard an island? Evidence for two-stage uplift, magmatic underplating, and mantle thermal anomalies

Svalbard is an anomalous, subaerial part of the Barents Shelf, Northeast Atlantic Ocean. In this study, we performed both, one‐ and two‐dimensional subsidence analyses based on basin structure, water depth, and thermochronology, to quantify and date the phases of uplift affecting Svalbard during the...
