Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The study of paleomagnetism has been a productive specialized sector of geology. This field has observed the rates at which plates spread, and has determined the calibration of the geological time scale, and the reconstruction of the continents. Information can be found in the section The Confirmation of Plate Tectonics.
