THE Reykjanes Ridge in the North Atlantic Ocean has been1 an important example in derivations of the theory of sea-floor spreading. A detailed dredging programme by the R/V Trident (September 1967) with camera and gravity core stations covered a profile across the crest of the Reykjanes Ridge (at latitude 60° N, Fig. 1) to look for direct information on the mechanism of spreading and to test one suggested explanation1. Many data were already available2–4. Continuous depth, total magnetic intensity and seismic profiling measurements along this traverse correlated the new data with the old (magnetic, gravity and seismic). There was also a secondary, incomplete profile at latitude 61° 25′ N, 150 km north, as well as heat flow measurements by K. Horai and M. Chessman of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
