Join Isla and Connor as they explore features of tectonic movement along the Great Glen ... It is made up of large slabs called tectonic plates. The plates fit together like jigsaw puzzle pieces ...

"The model encompasses ... two billion years of movement are essential to research initiatives that dig into Earth's history, geologic periods, and hidden tectonic plates.

The movement of the plates creates three types of tectonic boundaries: convergent, where plates move into one another; divergent, where plates move apart; and transform, where plates move sideways ...

To learn why, where, and how earthquakes happen, you need to familiarize your students with the interior of the Earth and a model called ... This is how Earth's tectonic plates move.

Geophysicists find areas that resemble the results of tectonic plate collisions — far from any area of such activity.

The researchers theorize that these far-off remnants could either be deposits of silica-rich material that have hung around ...

The mantle of the Earth, up to 1,800 miles (2,900 kms) thick and 84% of the Earth's volume, was assumed to be a simple ...

The modern understanding of the plate tectonic cycle predicts that remnants of submerged plates will be found near subduction zones. However, a new high-resolution model shows that these remnants ...
