The continents as we know them are changing, but at a rate far too slow for humans to perceive as they are floating about on the Earth's mantle. This movement of the Earth's crust results in volcanoes, tsunamis, and earthquakes.Answer and Explanation: The composition of the Earth's ...

The Composition and Evolution of the Continental Crust: Rare Earth Element Evidence from Sedimentary Rocks [and Discussion] The composition of the present-day upper crust, inferred from the uniformity of sedimentary rock r.e.e. (rare earth element) patterns, is close to that of ... SR Taylor...
A new calculation of the crustal composition is based on the proportions of upper crust (UC) to felsic lower crust (FLC) to mafic lower crust (MLC) of about 1:0.6:0.4. These proportions are derived from a 3000 km long refraction seismic profile through western Europe (EGT) comprising 60%...

[1] The nonuniqueness in determining the composition of the crust can be reduced by comparing the data for P-wave velocity (Vp), S-wave velocity (Vs), Vp/Vs ratio, mass density (ρ) and Lamé impedances (ρλ, ρμ) to data determined from laboratory measurements of these physical vari...
Barium isotopic composition of the upper continental crust The upper continental crust (UCC) is an important reservoir of Ba within the Earth. We report high precision (<=+/- 0.05 parts per thousand, 2SD) Ba isotop... Nan, Xiao-YunYu, Hui-MinRudnick, Roberta L.Gaschnig, Richard M.Xu,...
