Plate tectonics is the theory that Earth's outer shell is divided into several plates that glide over the mantle, the rocky inner layer above the core. The plates act like a hard and rigid shell compared to Earth's mantle. This strong outer layer is called the lithosphere.

Continental drift is the hypothesis that the Earth's continents have moved over geologic time relative to each other, thus appearing to have "drifted" across the ocean bed. Wegener argued that there was once a super continent (which he named Pangea -meaning ''all land ) which split up over millions of year and gradually drifted over to their current place on earth at a rate of a few centimeter year.

a) Wegener’s Evidence (Continental Drift) b) History of Plate Tectonics c) Breakup and Appearence of Pangea WHAT IS A PLATE? Major continental and oceanic plates include: Types of Earth’s Crust: Plate tectonics (from the Late Latin tectonicus) is a scientific theory which describes the large scale motions of Earth's lithosphere. THE DYNAMIC EARTH: The earth is a dynamic planet, continuously changing both externally and internally. The earth’s surface is constantly being changed by endo-genetic processes resulting in volcanism and tectonism, and exogenetic processes such as erosion and deposition. These processes have been active throughout geological history. The processes that change the surface feature are normally very slow (erosion and deposition) except some catastrophic changes that occur instantaneously as in the case of volcanism or earthquakes. The interior of the earth is also in motion. Deeper inside the earth, the liquid core probably flows at a geologically rapid rate of a few tenths of mm/s. Several hypotheses attempted to explain the dynamism of the earth. + Horizontal movement hypothesis + Continental drift, displacement hypothesis Development of the plate tectonic theory. Plate tectonic theory arose out of the hypothesis of continental drift proposed by Alfred Wegener in 1912. He suggested that the present continents once formed a single land mass that drifted apart, thus releasing the continents from the Earth's core and likening them to "icebergs" of low density granite floating on a sea of denser basalt. Seafloor Spreading The first evidence that the lithospheric plates did move came with the discovery of variable magnetic field direction in rocks of differing ages.

1. CONTINENTAL DRIFT “Father” of this theory is Alfred Wegener. 2. The Theory of Continental Drift Proposed by Alfred Wegener (1912):- A large super-continent PANGEA split into smaller fragments about 200-300 million years ago. These then drifted apart to form the present arrangement of continents. Most geologists were highly skeptical and the idea was NOT widely accepted. 3. This is what Wegener thought Pangea looked like 200-300 million years ago. 4. EVIDENCE OF CONTINENTAL DRIFT Wegener provided four main pieces of evidence to support his theory that the continents had been drifting over time. 5. 1. JIGSAW PUZZLE Wegener noticed that if we could move present day continents around, several continents look like they would fit together like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle. 6. 2. FOSSILS Wegener also found fossils of the same plants and animals on different continents now separated by vast oceans. They could only be found this way if the continents had once been joined together. 7. 3. ROCK SEQUENCE Wegener also found that mountain ranges have a similar sequence of type of rock and age on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean, suggesting they were once part of the same mountain range. 8. 4. GLACIAL SCARS Wegener found evidence of glacial scars left behind by giant ice sheets from the same time period in Southern Africa, India, Australia and South America. The white areas were covered by ice and tundra about 300 million years ago (arrows show the direction of ice movement). the continents were once part of a single larger continent that then split apart, drifting to their present positions over the last 300 million years. 9. WHAT COULD MOVE THE CONTINENTS? Unfortunately for Wegener, he could not explain what force was powerful enough to move entire continents around the planet. For reasons was he can't explain Alfred Wegener died on expedition in Greenland in 1930 still searching for answers to the question of what force could be responsible for the movement of the continents. 10. Reason for Support Continental Drift? Fit of continents Apparent discrepancy in inferred latitudes of ancient rocks Rocks of same age and similar characteristics on different continents Distribution of similar plants and animals on different continents 11. WEGENERS CONCLUSIONS: The continents have drifted over the past 300 million years to their present positions! (not a very popular idea at the time!!!)

8th Grade Integrated Science chapter 14 lesson 3 on the theory of plate tectonics. This lesson covers plate boundaries and the effects of the movement. It includes pictures and definitions of divergent, convergent, transform, collision, and subduction boundaries. There is an explanation of the lithosphere and the asthenosphere including convection currents. This also introduces forces causing plate motion such as basal drag, ridge push, and slab pull.

The presentation introduces remote sensing technology and how it is used in studying atmospheric aerosols. Remote Sensing technology uses the optical property of aerosols to detect the presence and the type of aerosol. The type or the characteristics of an aerosol is determined by seven factors which are interpreted from the satellite image. The satellite image is retrieved from geosynchronous and polar satellites, of which the latter is preferred for aerosol applications. In addition, features and terminologies associated with remote sensing, satellite and aerosol optical properties are discussed. This project emphasizes on an interactive material that is best supplemented with lecture video. It is not designed to be conventional lecture slide. Point to note: the question mark appearing in bottom of the slides indicates the author raised a question during the lecture. This presentation was delivered in coming-of-age lecture style, in contrast to old-school conventional style. This presentation stimulates audiences to think and act than a banal display of abstract data. The lecture videos can be found at: [1] Part-1/2 (52 minutes): https://youtu.be/-O_mYoeg-us [2] Part-2/2 (51 minutes): https://youtu.be/IhHHHZYcY0o This presentation is done as a part of graduate course titled Aerosol Mechanics in Spring 2016. The author was pursuing MS in Environmental Engineering Sciences at University of Florida during the making of this project.

Alfred Wegener produced evidence in 1912 that the continents are in motion, but because he could not explain what forces could move them, geologists rejected his ideas. Almost 50 years later, Harry Hess confirmed Wegener’s ideas by using the evidence of seafloor spreading to explain what moved the continents.

“La vida es demasiado corta como para que una persona guarde egoístamente cualquier nuevo hecho que descubre. Por lo tanto, estoy revelando todo lo que he aprendido a pesar de que algunos de los datos aún no se han completado del todo. Muchas mentes piensan mejor que una sola, y es mi ferviente esperanza que a partir de este inicio se genere más entusiasmo, el cual traerá consigo mentes activas a este campo de investigación. Los resultados de mi investigación inicial deben amplificarse y desarrollarse tecnológicamente con el fin de servir mejor a la humanidad.” MAYNARD MURRAY, M.D.

A PowerPoint used in class to cover the key forms of evidence you need to know for the Exam. Key Questions are likely to be focused on how we can gain information of past climatic change, and how it can be used to predict future, and I would expect you to be able to comment on the usefulness of the different types. For instance, Ice cores are highly accurate and quantifiable evidence, but gaining them is expensive, and only gives a climatic record for the site at which the snow formed. However, they do provide the longest record of change.
