Some numerical investigations of large scale continental deformation.
The theory of plate tectonics cannot adequately account for the deformation of the continents: within the oceanic portions of the plates seismic deformation is seen to occur in belts only a few tens of kilometres wide, but seismic, topographic, gravity and field geology data all indicate that the co...
