Layers of the EarthCore
Inner Core – solidOuter Core – liquid
MantleThought to be solid, but so hot that it flows like
lavaSwirls and mixes like boiling soup =
convection currents
19
Layers of the EarthMantle (continued)
Asthenosphere Portion of upper
mantle Location of convection
Lithosphere Upper mantle into the crust Where plates located

Continental Drift TheoryAlfred Wegener 1912Supercontinent
Pangaea
24
What is up withthese drifting continents, y’all?
25
Similarities in:1. types of fossils (Mesosaurus)
2. shape and fit of continents androck formations;
3. age and structure
Continental Drift Theory
26
27
28
I know the plates are moving. I just don’t know how to prove it…
Plate Tectonics Theory 1950sEntire surface of earth moves, not just
continentsLithosphere-
crust and uppermost mantlePlates- broken up pieces that move over the
more “plastic” (fluid) asthenosphere
29
REVIEW:What’s the asthenosphere famous for???
CONVECTION CURRENTS!!
What crazy awesome technology developed during WW2 helped to validate the Theory of Plate Tectonics??????

SONAR
Mid-Ocean Ridgediscovered by sonar after WWIIchain of submarine volcanic mountainsLargest geological feature on the earth.Displaced from side to side by transform
faults (cracks)
32
Mid-Atlantic RidgeEast Pacific Rise
33
34
Sea Floor Spreading (cont’d)Sonar also found trenches, mostly in the
PacificTons of geological activity along mid ocean
ridges.Earthquakes- near ridgesVolcanic activity- near trenches

37
38
Significance of Mid-ocean ridgesGeologic ages- rocks near the ridge are
“young” compared to rocks far from the ridgeVery little sediment near the ridge- and an
increase in sediment further from the ridgeMagnetic anomaly bands
Bands of rock on seafloor parallel to mid-ocean ridges
Alternate between normal and reversed magnetization
Mirror images on opposite sides of ridge

Warm up 9/10Answer the following in complete sentences:
In what state of matter does the inner core exist?
What ocean has the greatest average depth?What hemisphere contains the greatest
percentage of ocean water?
What term from yesterday’s earth picture does this diagram represent?
43
Warm up 9/11
1. Identify and describe two differences in characteristics of rock near a mid-ocean ridge as opposed to further from the ridge.
2. Describe two of the three pieces of evidence that supported Wegener’s Continental Drift Theory.
3. What do the black and white stripes on the diagram below represent?
44
Agenda 9/11Finish seafloor spreading labResume notesTsunami videos, article, questions
45
46
47
Magnetic anomaly bands prove seafloor not created all at once but cooled from molten material at different times in geologic history
48
Creation of the Sea FloorPieces of oceanic
crust separating at mid-ocean ridges create cracks called riftsRifts release
pressure (remove cap from soda bottle)
Allow molten material (bottled up) to reach earth’s surface, cool, solidify and form new crust
49
Seafloor spreading = process by which the sea floor moves away from the mid-ocean ridge to create new sea floor
Occurs at a divergent boundary (moving away)
50
Creation of the Sea Floor
Bill Nye Seafloor
MID-OCEAN RIDGESeafloor spreadingDivergent(plates separate,
magma bubbles up)
TRENCHSubductionConvergent(plates move
together, form trench)
Earthquakes = tsunamis
51
Seafloor Spreading and Plate Tectonics…REVIEW: Plates (in lithosphere) float on
swirling convection of asthenosphereNew oceanic lithosphere (plates) formed at
mid-ocean ridgesIf that plate also includes a slab of
continental plate, then continents move tooAs new is created, old is destroyed. WHY?
52
Lithosphere destroyed at trenchesFormed when 2 plates collide and 1 dips below
the other and sinks into mantle
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ryrXAGY1dmE
53
Seafloor Spreading and Plate Tectonics…
Seafloor Spreading and Plate Tectonics…Subduction = downward movement of platesTrenches are AKA “subduction zones”
because this is where subduction occurs! Convergent boundaries (moving together)Island arcs = volcanic island chains
associated with trenches
54
55
56
Subduction of oceanic and continental plates
Subduction of two continental plates
Why will the oceanic plate sink under the continental plate every time?????
57
Tsunamis series of great sea waves caused by an
underwater earthquake, landslide, or volcanic eruption.

Geologic Records in Ocean SedimentsStudying sediments gives clues to the history
of the earthTwo major types: 1. Lithogenous- derived from terrestrial
rock that has been eroded- most common is red clay
66
2. Biogenous- made of skeletons and shells of marine organismsCalcareous ooze- primarily CaCO3, calcium
carbonateSiliceous ooze- primarily SiO2, or silica.
These microfossils can give clues to ancient ocean temperatures
67
Geologic Records in Ocean Sediments
Geological Provinces of the Ocean
Seafloor divided into 2 main regions1. Continental
margins = submerged edges of continents
2. Deep-sea floor
68
Continental margin
Continental MarginBoundaries between continental and oceanic
crustsWhere thick sediment deposits Made of 3 parts:
1. Continental shelf- biologically rich, part of continent that is underwater. Ends at a ‘shelf break’ where shelf abruptly gets
steeper
69
Up to 6 miles of sediment deep!
Continental margin (cont’d)2. Continental slope- begins at shelf break and
descends to deep-sea floor3. Continental rise- made of thick layers of
sediments building up on sea floor at the base of the slope.

Deep Ocean Basins Abyssal Plain
Great plain on ocean floor - very flatCovers 50% of earth’s surfaceCan be interrupted by seamounts (underwater
mountains), or guyots (flat topped seamounts)Habitat of unusual marine organisms

Warm up 9/131. The tsunamis in Indonesia and Japan in 2004
and 2011 were a result of earthquakes at what type of plate boundary?
2. What geological feature occurs at this type of boundary?
3. Describe the components that make up biogenous sediment. How are these different than components of lithogenous sediment?
4. Which part of the continental margin is the steepest and occurs after the shelf break?
77
Warm Up 9/16In a complete
sentence, describe the differences between passive and active margins.
Would point A fall on a passive margin? Why or why not?
78
Warm Up 9/16Label the features represented at points A,B,C, and D
Which of the four features represented at A,B,C, and D accounts for the majority of the sea floor (and thus, earth’s surface)?

How big is the blob fish??
83
84
Continental MarginsTwo Types
1. Active margins- occur at plate boundaries Geologically very active- earthquakes and volcanoes trenches found offshore, no rise shelf is nearly non-existent, slope is very steep often have steep rocky shorelines
Ex- West coast of South America
85
Two types of Continental Margins (cont’d)
2. Passive margin- edge of continental crust is within a plate- no plate boundary nearby Geologically ‘inactive’ flat coastal plains wide continental shelves, more gradual slopes,
thick rises Ex- North Carolina!
86
87
88
Oceanic and continental crust meet at plate boundary = ACTIVE
Oceanic and continental crust meet within a plate = PASSIVE

Mid-ocean ridges and hydrothermal ventsSeparation at mid-ocean ridges creates
cracks called riftsSeawater seeps in the cracks and is heated by
rising magma
Hot water rises through the crust as hydrothermal vents (deep sea hot springs)
Nat Geo hydrothermal vents
94
Up to 600 degrees!!
95
Hydrothermal VentsLava bursting forth, bringing with it
hydrogen sulfide, or H2S, which is poisonous to living things on earth!!!
These living species not only survive in it, but they thrive. And they do it in total darkness!!!!
96
H2S skin rash (mild contact)
Hydrothermal vents Mineral rich water cools in the ocean and the
minerals are deposited, making tall chimneys called black or white smokers
Rich in unusual marine life!!!!!
97
Hydrothermal vent creatures
Hydrothermal ventsSo why are scientists so surprised to find life so deep in the ocean?
What did they previously think organisms needed to survive?
