| Geologists have devised a number of clever ways to reconstruct the past movements of tectonic plates. |
| As the tectonic plates move apart, rock is pulled up from depth at the spreading axis and melts as it depressurizes. |
| For those who can sense the movement of ideological tectonic plates, this book represents the beginning of a seismic shift. |
| Contrasting the abruptness of earthquakes is the slow drift of tectonic plates. |
| As new seafloor forms, the earth's tectonic plates move apart in opposite directions at these spreading centers. |
| Chords shift like tectonic plates in a rugby scrum and Todd remains calm, focused and deals in a very dry, biting, intoned vocal delivery. |
