Unexplained anomalies of the plate tectonics (PT) model are the postulated mechanism of generating the axial rift valley by upward movement of marginal fault blocks, contrary to observations in the Icelandic rift, and the mechanism by which a postulated broad upwelling plume can yield the required ...
Plate tectonics sculpted Earth’s surface and may have set the stage for the emergence of life. A new study offers clues about how this planetary churning began.

Continental drift, large-scale horizontal movement of continents relative to one another and to the ocean basins during one or more episodes of geologic time. This concept was an important precursor to the development of the theory of plate tectonics, wh
