The 195 pages that link to Plate tectonics, each with the reason it gives.

• Land (terrain)Related: Plate motion builds continents, raises mountains, and opens ocean basins.

• Mountain formationRelated: Plate motion supplies the collisions and subduction that drive many episodes of mountain building.

• Amsterdam IslandRelated: Plate movement underlies the volcanism that formed the island.

• Geological history of EarthRelated: Plate motion builds continents, oceans, and mountain belts while recycling crust.

• GreywackeRelated: Greywacke-rich deep-water successions often record sedimentation near active plate margins.

• NeoarcheanRelated: Neoarchean rocks preserve evidence used to investigate when modern-style plate tectonics began.

• VaalbaraRelated: Vaalbara reconstructions inform debate about how modern-style tectonic processes operated in the Archean.

• Earth's internal heat budgetRelated: Internal heat drives mantle circulation that helps keep plates moving.

• GeodynamicsRelated: It links deep forces to earthquakes, mountain building, and seafloor creation.

• Geologic recordRelated: Plate motion buries, deforms, transports, and exposes parts of the record.

• History of geophysicsRelated: Geophysical evidence helped establish a unified account of earthquakes, volcanoes, and seafloor motion.
