  abstract = {{T}ravel time inversion and amplitude modelling of {OBS} wide-range seismic data recorded in the {E}nderby {B}asin, west of the {K}erguelen {P}lateau, show a 10 to 13 km thick crust characteristic of oceanic crust emplaced near a hotspot (velocity reaches 7.4 km/s at the bottom of the crust). {F}rom this study we infer that the eastern border of the {E}nderby {B}asin is part of the {C}retaceous {K}erguelen {V}olcanic {P}rovince, and that it results from the influence of the {K}erguelen hotspot on the spreading axis. {S}ynthetic seismogram modelling confirms that the northern {K}erguelen {P}lateau is propably emplaced over the {K}erguelen hotspot in an {I}celand-type setting.
