How are new technologies, such as autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), revolutionizing the study of sea spreading?

Our regional two-dimensional thermomechanical model with inclusion of melt generation and magmatic processes simulates deformation of the crust and upper mantle ... Seafloor spreading event in western Gulf of Aden during the November 2010 - March 2011 period captured by regional seismic networks: Evidence for diking ... Feb 24, 2012 ... Reveals how seafloor topography, magnetic polarity, and age are evidence for the sea floor spreading hypothesis. Seafloor spreading occurs at divergent plate boundaries. As tectonic plates slowly move away from each other, heat from the mantle's convection currents makes ... Mar 29, 2017 ... Ocean acidification is occurring because the ocean is absorbing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. When seawater absorbs carbon dioxide, its ... Today, Earth scientists accept seafloor spreading as an integral part of plate tectonics. “When you have two oceanic plates moving away from one another, that's ... A new theory that gives promise of eventually relating geomagnetism and the earth's internal and orbital dynamics. Oct 2, 2015 ... Mid-ocean ridge volcanism and extensional faulting are the fundamental processes that lead to the creation and rifting of oceanic crust, ... We present a tectonic interpretation of the breakup and early seafloor spreading between India and Antarctica based on improved coverage of potential field and ... Feb 26, 2024 ... This paper summarizes the basic understanding about the dynamic mechanisms of global asymmetric seafloor spreading and ridge jumps and reviews the related ...
