Unveiling The Interplay: Sea Floor Spreading And The Formation Of Supercontinents
Sea floor spreading, the creation and movement of new oceanic crust at mid-ocean ridges, is a key driver in the formation and breakup of supercontinents. As new crust is generated, it pushes existing continents apart, leading to the breakup of supercontinents. Over time, these separated continents can collide and merge again, forming new supercontinents. This…
