Tectonic Evolution of the Western United States | Animation by Dr. Tanya Atwater
Present (last frame of movie). At Present the Pacific Plate fills most of the northeast Pacific Ocean basin with only the small Juan de Fuca and Cocos plates remaining from the previous configuration. The various shades of blue show the ages of the sea floor, as deduced from marine magnetic anomalies. The Pacific plate is moving northwest past North America. It has captured some slivers of the continental edge and is carrying them northwestward toward Alaska. Thus, the present Pacific-North America plate boundary lies within the continent, along the San Andreas fault system. It is connected to other plate boundaries at three-plate triple junctions, the so-called Mendocino and Rivera tripl...

    • @allisondeanjones
      @allisondeanjones Год назад

      Absolutely! The easiest way to distinguish the two is their cleavage. Amphiboles exhibit two cleavage planes at ~120 and ~60 degrees. Pyroxene exhibits two cleavage planes at ~90 degrees!

    You did a nice job explaining concepts of metamorphism. Thank you for making the concepts relatively easy to understand (at least at the time, Ha!), it's mostly a matter of keeping them in mind when thinking about the rocks. The examples of the representative rocks is enlightening, and helps place to rock to a process. So appreciative. Thanks
