Abstract: AbstractThe Aden‐Owen‐Carlsberg triple junction is the place where Arabia, Somalia, and India meet in the Arabian Sea (NW Indian Ocean). Here we present a new seismic data set crossing a key structure of the triple junction, namely, the Beautemps‐Beaupré pull‐apart basin at the southern end of the Owen Fracture Zone. The seismic data set is tied to Ocean Drilling Program Leg 117 Sites at the top of the Owen Ridge, which provides a detailed tectono‐stratigraphic framework since the Late Miocene. We show that the triple junction config...
