The Central Atlantic magmatic province (CAMP) is the Earth's largest continental large igneous province, covering an area of roughly 11 million km2.

The subsequent breakup of Pangaea created the Atlantic Ocean, but the massive igneous upwelling provided a legacy of basaltic dikes, sills, and lavas now spread over a vast area around the present central North Atlantic Ocean, including large deposits in northwest Africa, southwest Europe, as well as northeast South and southeast North America (found as continental tholeiitic basalts in subaerial flows and intrusive bodies).

  • The Central Atlantic magmatic province (CAMP) is the Earth's largest continental large igneous province, covering an area of roughly 11 million km2. It is composed mainly of basalt that formed before Pangaea broke up in the Mesozoic Era, near the end of the Triassic and the beginning of the Jurassic periods. The subsequent breakup of Pangaea created the Atlantic Ocean, but the massive igneous upwelling provided a legacy of basaltic dikes, sills, and lavas now spread over a vast area around the present central North Atlantic Ocean, including large deposits in northwest Africa, southwest Europe, as well as northeast South and southeast North America (found as continental tholeiitic basalts in subaerial flows and intrusive bodies). The name and CAMP acronym were proposed by Andrea Marzoli (Marzoli et al. 1999) and adopted at a symposium held at the 1999 Spring Meeting of the American Geophysical Union. The CAMP volcanic eruptions occurred about 201 million years ago and split into four pulses lasting for over ~600,000 years. The resulting large igneous province is, in area covered, the most extensive on Earth. The volume of magma flow of ~2–3 × 106 km3 makes it one of the most voluminous as well. This geologic event is associated with the Triassic–Jurassic extinction event. (en)
  • La provincia magmática del Atlántico Central (en inglés, Central Atlantic magmatic province', también conocida por sus siglas CAMP) es una gran provincia ígnea que se formó hace 200±2 Ma, entre los periodos Triásico y Jurásico, durante la apertura del rift de Pangea.​​ Hay dos hipótesis para explicar su formación: por la acción de una pluma mantélica o por la acción de varias células convectivas situadas bajo el rift.​ La provincia debió ocupar una superficie de más de 7 000 000 km², y sus afloramientos se pueden encontrar en Europa, África y América.​ (es)
  • La province magmatique centre atlantique (CAMP : central atlantic magmatic province) est une grande province ignée, dont on retrouve des traces en Europe occidentale (Pyrénées atlantiques, sud de l'Espagne), sur toute la côte est des États-Unis et du Canada, dans tout l'ouest de l'Afrique et au nord-est de l'Amérique latine. Elle se caractérise sur le terrain par des épanchements et des dykes basaltiques, ainsi que des dykes de roches mafiques. Toutes ces roches sont datées de la limite entre Trias et Jurassique, il y a 200 Ma (à 2 Ma près) par la méthode 40Ar/39Ar sur des plagioclases. La Province magmatique centre atlantique est de ce fait considérée comme un bon candidat comme cause de l'extinction du Trias-Jurassique. De plus elles ont été reliées d'un point de vue génétique car elles font presque toute partie de la série tholéitique.La reconstitution paléogéographique de la position des continents il y a 200 Ma grâce notamment aux analyses des anomalies magnétiques montre qu'Afrique, Europe et Amérique étaient soudés. Cette soudure de l'Amérique du Sud et de l'Afrique est assez facile à imaginer si l'on regarde les formes complémentaires de ces deux continents. (fr)
  • La provincia magmatica dell'Atlantico centrale, abbreviata comunemente in CAMP dall'acronimo dell'inglese Central Atlantic Magmatic Province, è una grande provincia ignea composta principalmente di basalto che si è formata prima della frammentazione mesozoica della Pangea, tra la fine del Triassico e l'inizio del Giurassico. La successiva frammentazione della Pangea portò alla formazione dell'oceano Atlantico e ai conseguenti dicchi basaltici, sill e flussi lavici su una vasta area attorno a quello che è attualmente l'Atlantico centro-settentrionale, con grandi depositi sparsi tra l'Africa nordoccidentale, l'Europa sudoccidentale, il Nord America sudorientale e la parte nordorientale del Sud America, ben evidenziati nel basalto tholeiitico delle eruzioni di tipo subaereo e nelle rocce intrusive. La denominazione e l'acronimo CAMP furono proposti nel 1999 da Andrea Marzoli et al. e adottati nel simposio del 1999 Spring Meeting dell'American Geophysical Union. Le eruzioni vulcaniche della CAMP avvennero all'incirca 201 milioni di anni fa e si suddivisero in quattro fasi della durata di oltre 600.000 anni. La grande provincia ignea che ne risulta è la più vasta sulla Terra come estensione; il volume della massa magmatica, che assomma a ~2–3 × 106 km³, è tra i più imponenti anche se non il più elevato in assoluto. Alla CAMP viene associata anche l'estinzione di massa del Triassico-Giurassico. (it)
