Iipleyiti zeTectonics - i-tectonics yesayensi echaza ukuhamba okukhulu kweepleyiti ezinkulu okanye ezisibhozo (kuxhomekeke kwindlela ezimiselweyo) kunye nenani elincinci leShetnel ye-Preen yethu, oko kukuthi, i-lithoSherre. Ukuhamba kwesihlobo seepleyiti kuhlala ku-zero ukuya kwi-100 yeemilimitha ngonyaka: Iinkqubo ze-tectonic zaqala emhlabeni phakathi kwe-3.3 kunye ne-3.5 yezigidigidi kwiminyaka eyadlulayo, esi santya sanele ukuhambisa amazwekazi onke.
Iqela le-geophysicicia elivela eTshayina, e-Australia naseCanada lenze enye yeemodeli ezigcwele kakhulu zokuhamba okuqhubekayo kweeplate zeTectonic eziqala kwiminyaka eyadlulayo. Kwaye ixesha elinomtsalane lexesha lalifanelekile kwividiyo engama-40. Isifundo ngokwaso sipapashwa kwimagazini yeMagazini-yenzululwazi.
"Iplanethi yethu yahlukile kuba inobomi. Kodwa oku kunokwenzeka kuphela ngenxa yeenkqubo ze-gemological, ezinjengeSlab Tectonics, zibonelela ngenkqubo yenkxaso yobomi yeplanethi. Iqela lethu lidale imodeli entsha ngokupheleleyo yendalo yomhlaba, "utshilo uProfiles Ditmar Müller kwiDyunivesithi yaseSydney.
Kule minyaka mine idlulileyo, ababhali bophononongo baqokelelweyo bedatha kwintshukumo yepleyiti kumazwe onke kunye nembali ye-tectonic kwimimandla ekude. Iziphumo zokwakhiwa kwakhona zibonisa ukuba iilwandle zityhilwe njani kwaye zancitshiswa, amazwekazi aqhekezwe, edibene namaxesha athile, edibene kwaye wenza i-supercontinents.
"Ngexesha lomntu, yonke into ihamba kwiisentimitha ngonyaka, kodwa, njengoko sibona, amazwekazi ayekho kuyo yonke indawo ngexesha. Indawo enjalo njenge-antarctica, esikubonayo namhlanje njengengingqi ebandayo nes-smart, enyanisweni, kanye, yakuqala ukuzonwabisa kwikhweyitha, "iDyunivesithi yaseSydney Yongeze iSydney Sydney.
Imodeli entsha iya kuvumela inzululwazi ukuba iqonde ngakumbi ukuba itshintshiwe nendlela imeko yemozulu kunye neentyatyambo zolwandle, njengezinto ezivela kwizibilini zincedile ekuqaliseni indaleko. Ngenxa yoko, abaphandi babhiyozela, umsebenzi wabo, mhlawumbi, baya kucacisa ukuba kutheni kukho ubomi kwiplanethi yethu.
"Ewe kunjalo, ukwakhiwa kwakhona kwenjongo yokubonisa imiba ephambili ye-tectonics yehlabathi yeminyaka yokugqibela, ngenxa yoko, azikho iinkcukacha ezinokuthi zifakwe kwimimandla nganye," ababhali bezifundo bezishwankathelwe.
