How does one write about plate tectonics? It's an important question for those studying the earth sciences. This resource from the Earth Exploration Toolbook was created by Sabina F. Thomas and William A. Prothero and is designed to help students use a range of images of earthquakes, volcanoes, and seafloor ages to craft just such a paper. On this site, visitors can take advantage of teaching notes, step-by-step instructions, and a range of tools. Instructors will find this material quite useful and it's important to note that students are encouraged to use these resources for improving their own skills of scientific inquiry and synthesis.
