Structure of
the Earth
The interior structure of the Earth, similar to the outer, is
layered. These layers can be defined by either their chemical or their
rheological properties. The Earth has an outer silicate solid crust, a
highly viscous mantle, a liquid outer core that is much less viscous than
the mantle, and a solid inner core |

Velocity Structure of the Earth The phenomenon of plate tectonics gives
evidence of sources of energy within the Earth. Although the Earth's heat
output each day is much smaller than the amount of solar energy it receives,
it is enough to build mountains that resist the solar-driven processes of
erosion. To understand how plate tectonics works, we must understand the
nature of the Earth's interior |

Historical
Perspective of Plate Tectonics
According to the continental drift
theory, the supercontinent Pangaea began to break up about 225-200 million
years ago, eventually fragmenting into the continents as we know them today |
List of
tectonic plates a list of tectonic plates on Earth. Tectonic plates are
pieces of the Earth's crust and uppermost mantle, together referred to as
the lithosphere. The plates are around 100 km (60 miles) thick and consist
of two principal types of material: oceanic crust (also called sima from
silicon and magnesium) and continental crust (sial from silicon and
aluminium) |

Plate tectonics
the Earth's surface is made up of a series of large plates (like pieces of a
giant jigsaw puzzle). These plates are in constant motion travelling at a
few centimetres per year. The ocean floors are continually moving, spreading
from the centre and sinking at the edges |
