Table of Contents. Seafloor Spreading and Paleomagnetism. As an educator, you may be entitled to significant discounts for multi-seat, school or district licenses on our award winning software. This will enable you to access Layered Earth on workstations in your class, library or computer lab, giving your students the direct, interactive experience that's proven to be the most effective way to learn.
Travel from Pangea to the present day - faster than a tectonic plate. Fresh and relevant auto updates of new lessons, exercises, simulations - including the Japan tsunami and Nepal earthquake. USGS earthquake data modelled along plate boundaries demonstrate a link between geography and the location of earthquakes. Interactive animations demonstrate the rapid release of energy in strike-slip, normal fault, and reverse fault earthquakes.
Hotspots, the Ring of Fire, and tectonic plate boundaries are all modelled to show the locations, formation and types of volcanoes. Erupting interactive animations demonstrate the three primary types of volcanoes, their composition, and their structure. Source events, epicenters, time travel and wave height maps simulate the tsunami events for Japan , Chile and Alaska An interactive animation simulates how an underwater earthquake generates a tsunami, the propagating waves, and the affect on a costal area.
Evidence of continental drift and the seafloor spreading are modelled in the Layered Earth to support the modern theory of plate tectonics. Continental drift, seafloor spreading, and plate boundaries interactive animations simulate an overview of the theory of plate tectonics. Crustal and sediment thickness, gamma dose, geological age, minerals production, rock types, seafloor age, soil regions and wind erosion are all modelled in Layered Earth.
An interactive animation simulates how the lithosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, and biosphere combine to create the three major types of rocks. Ice cover up to 20, years ago and sea level elevation maps demonstrate how glaciers and water produce unique landforms through erosion and deposition of material.
For each lesson in The Layered Earth, the Workbook contains a summary of the lesson and a worksheet to fill out the answers to the review questions.
