While the global pattern of absolute velocity is probably close to those predicted by such models, the absolute motions do not therefore provide a strong test of the driving mechanism. Comparison of predicted intraplate stress with the long-wavelength features of the global stress field, however, ...
During the 1950s and 1960s, new data emerged that enabled geologists to propose a mechanism of continental drift. According to this theory, Earth’s surface consists of a number of rocky tectonic plates. The plates fit together at their edges but are not attached to each other. The part of...
The Earth's plates jostle about in fits and starts that are punctuated with earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.

Only within the last fifty years did scientists really begin to understand what drives plate tectonics. The theory of continental drift had been proposed nearly fifty years prior but went unrecognized until a mechanism of movement was discovered. ...

Earth’s mantle convection, which facilitates planetary heat loss, is manifested at the surface as present-day plate tectonics1. When plate tectonics emerged and how it has evolved through time are two of the most fundamental and challenging questions in
