Tectonic
Plates
Theory
■ Plate Tectonics is an unifying
theory that explains different
geological events and features.
■ It´s based on a simple model of
Earth that exposes that the rigid
lithosphere is fragmented,
forming a mosaic of pieces of
different sizes that are in
movement, called plates, wich fit
together and change in
thickness according to their
composition, whether is oceanic
crust, continental crust or a mix
Tectonic Plates Theory in the world of both.

■ Hess wanted to explain the continental drift,
based on the topographic variations of the
oceans.
■ He proposed that as two huge masses of
the mantle separated, passively carried the
ocean floor and molten material arose that
formed a volcanic chain and that filled the
void formed but also it was necessary that
some any part of it be consumed the
material.
Types of tectonic plates limits:
Divergent limits or oceanic ridge (constructive limits).
The plates are separated from each other due to convection movements
Deep depressions such as the Great Rift Valley form on land where the plates separate.
New crust is built.
In this part the greatest Vulcanism is concentrated

What is a seismic wave??
●The Seismic Waves are a kind of wave called
elastic that is very strong in terms of the
propagation of the temporary perturbations of the
field of tensions that tend to generate minimum
movements in the Tectonic Plates.
● Seismic waves are created by telluric movements
which are produced naturally, due to the interaction
between tectonic plates, which are moved due to
the convection cycle inside the earth. The largest
can cause various damages in areas where there are

■ Love waves, called in this way in honor of its discoverer, the famous physicist
A.E.H. Love, which are the ones that deform the rocks similarly to the S
waves, but only in the horizontal direction.
■ Rayleigh waves, named in this way in honor of Lord Rayleigh, these are the
ones that produce a type of vertical movement, very similar to that of the
marine waves.
Below you can see the different
kinds of wave speeds in different
media:
