Leading earth scientists discuss their interest in, and their contribution to, the development of the theory of plate tectonics.
The BUFVC Moving Image Gateway includes over 1,550 websites relating to video, multimedia and sound materials. These have been subdivided into over 40 subject areas. To suggest new entries or...
Maps, exercises and windows allow explorations of specific geologic characteristics and aspects of plate tectonics theory. Uses video, animation and graphics; includes tutorials and case studies of mountain...
Demonstration using animation of the principles of plate tectonics: the movement of lithosphere plates over the past 600 million years, the movement of the plate edges and convection as the motor of these...
Shows how the earth’s surface changes through volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, sea-floor spreading, subduction zones, and mountain uplife. Uses maps and footage to show how tectonic plates move and form....
Sixteenth module of 18 which introduces the major landscape features associated with plate movement. The core deals with the causes of earthquake and investigate their contemporary spatial patterns of...
Introduces the structure, formation and evolution of ocean crust. Reviews the evidence for plate tectonics and presents more detailed ocean crust information. Uses graphics and animation sequences and there...
Because the European Alps are the result of the most recent period of mountain building, formed within the last 100 million years, the region is often used as a model for the study of orogenic belts....
Dr Dan McKenzie, FRS, was one of the research scientists whose work resulted in the revolutionary theory of plate tectonics in 1970. He describes his work and ideas and explains how these contributed to the...
Reviews the experimental evidence for drifting continents. Discusses paleoclimatic evidence for latitudinal drift; paleomagnetic evidence from ‘apparent polar wandering’ curves; fossil links between...
