The West Atlantic Basin is a very large Mesozoic and Cenozoic passive margin basin in the eastern United States.
It extends from northeastern Florida to offshore Maine and is limited for this study to that volume of sedimentary rock south of the U.S.–Canadian national maritime boundary, west of the U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) Atlantic Ocean boundary, north of the U.S.–Bahama Islands national maritime boundary, and east of a line that approximates the beginning of down depositional dip thickening of sedimentary rocks to the east. The West Atlantic Basin includes the Southeast Georgia Embayment, the Blake Plateau Basin, the Carolina Trough, the Baltimore Canyon Trough, and the U.S. portion of the Georges Bank Basin. It lies unconformably above the Newark Group rift basins described above. The northern, western, and southern boundaries for this basin are simplified from a number of sources, including outlines shown in Cohee and others (1962) and Frezon and Finn (1988). The eastern boundary is derived from the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement (BOEMRE) (2010c). Sediments and sedimentary rocks probably extend for an undetermined distance to east of the eastern boundary of this basin but are not included in this discussion.
