Abstract

We are grateful for the opportunity to reply to the Comment by Stoker et al. (2013), who raise questions of interpretation regarding our paper (Hohbein et al., 2012). The main focus of the paper is the interpretation of the Eocene basinal succession of the Faerøe-Shetland Basin as a contourite drift body, using two-dimensional seismic and borehole data. This interpretation is exactly that: an interpretation, and as is the case with regional seismic stratigraphic interpretation in general, alternative views are often forthcoming, and to be encouraged.
