1. Introduction
The supplementary material documents the complete wide-angle seismic data set, interpre- tation, ray tracing, and travel-time fit. A large map of the region is shown in Figure 1, while profile and instrument locations are shown in Figure 2. Large versions of the gravity and magnetic anomaly maps are in Figures 3-4. All seismic data and models are shown in Figures 5-20. Seismic phases constraining the crystalline crust are indicated for each data set: P
xsedimentary refraction, P
g1upper basement refraction, P
g2middle basement refraction, P
g3lower basement refraction, and P
g4lower crustal body refraction, P
nupper mantle refraction, P
CP top lower crustal body re- flection, P
GP various intra-basement reflections, and P
MP Moho reflection. The velocity model is repeated here in Figure 21.

Figure 21: Gridded crustal velocity model of Profile 6-03, showing ray coverage. The OBS/H locations are numbered on the seafloor, and seismometers onshore. Hachures indicate the continent-ocean transition (COT). The magnetic (red solid line) and Free-air gravity (orange solid line) tracks collected along profile are shown above. The dashed blue line is extracted from the magnetic grid of Olesen et al. (2010).
