Fig. S1. Compilation of North Atlantic Crustal Transects. This figure is similar to Fig. 1, but

includes additional transects.

Fig. S2. Matrix of all models with extension rate of 2 cm/a. This figure is similar to Fig. 4, but also shows the effect of different slab dip

angles.

Fig. S3. Matrix of all models with extension rate of 0.5 cm/a. This figure is similar to Fig. 7, but also shows the effect of different slab dip

angles.
