1. 12.480 Thermodynamics for Geoscientists, Spring 2004 - Grove, Timothy L.
Principles of thermodynamics are used to infer the physical conditions of formation and modification of igneous and metamorphic rocks.

2. Plate Tectonic Motion
This site provides an index map for the regions of the world for which there are SLR site motion results, and indicates where and how much movement has taken place.

3. Tectonic Plate Motion
This site uses satellite laser ranging (SLR) to determine absolute rates of tectonic movement for crustal plates.

4. Plate Tectonic Animations
Educational levels: High school, Middle school, Undergraduate lower division.

5. Plate Tectonic Animations - Chris Scotese
This site contains a variety of plate tectonic animations, paleogeographic reconstructions, and paleoclimate animations.

6. Plate Tectonic Movement Visualizations
This collection provides a wide array of visual resources and supporting material about plate tectonic movements.

7. Volcano: Tectonic Environments - Victor Camp
This site describes where volcanoes are found in terms of plate tectonics and explains why they occur at those locations.

8. Tectonic Plates, Earthquakes, and Volcanoes
Volcanoes and earthquakes both result from the movement of tectonic plates.

9. The Nature of Tectonic Plates - Ken Rhinehart
This lesson provides an overview of the various types of interactions between tectonic plates.

10. Dangerous Earth: A Plate Tectonic Story
Students will also learn that beneath the lithosphere is the asthenosphere, part of the upper mantle that is ductile because it contains 1-10 percent molten material as films around the crystals.

11. Estructura tectónica de la Unidad de la Peñarrubia-Castellar - Tent Manclús, José Enrique; Martín Martín, Manuel; Estévez Rubio, Antonio
The Internal-External Betic Zone Boundary between Bullas and Zarzadilla de Totana is composed by the tectonic units of Peñarrubia-Castellar, El Francés Chaotic Complex, Las Canteras, Sierra de Ponce and Alquería, in the External Zone, and by the Morrón de Totana Unit belonging to the Malaguide Complex, in the Internal Zone.

12. Estructura tectónica de la Unidad de la Peñarrubia-Castellar - Tent Manclús, José Enrique; Martín Martín, Manuel; Estévez Rubio, Antonio
The Internal-External Betic Zone Boundary between Bullas and Zarzadilla de Totana is composed by the tectonic units of Peñarrubia-Castellar, El Francés Chaotic Complex, Las Canteras, Sierra de Ponce and Alquería, in the External Zone, and by the Morrón de Totana Unit belonging to the Malaguide Complex, in the Internal Zone.

13. Tectonic Plates and Plate Boundaries
Similarities between distant coastlines, such as those on opposite sides of the Atlantic, were thought to be the work of a scientist's overactive imagination, or, if real, the result of erosion on a massive scale.

14. ODSN Plate Tectonic Reconstruction Service
If you are familiar with the features of this reconstruction system, there is also an Advanced Mapping System.

15. Major Tectonic Plates of the World
This site shows a colored map of the world's tectonic plates including the continents.

16. Tertiary Paleogeography and Tectonic History, Central Arizona - Ronald Blakey
Educational levels: Graduate or professional, Undergraduate lower division, Undergraduate upper division.

17. Digital Tectonic Activity Map of the Earth
This lithograph introduces the Digital Tectonic Activity Map (DTAM) to the classroom utilizing the map with online activities.

18. The Plate Tectonic Story: A Scientific Jigsaw
This activity has students read and answer questions based upon the article 'The plate tectonic story: a scientific jigsaw.' The article starts with the continental drift theory of Alfred Wegener and adds the evidence from the seafloor to arrive at plate tectonics.

19. Digital World Tectonic Activity Map (DTAM) - Jacob Yates
The map is a Robinson projection showing: actively spreading ridges and transform faults, total spreading rate, major active faults and fault zones, normal faults and rifts, reverse faults (overthrust, subduction zones), and volcanic centers.

20. Estudio paleomagnético del cinturón volcánico transmexicano : implicaciones tectónicas - Ruiz Martínez, Carlos Vicente
Se ha realizado un estudio paleomagnético sistemático a lo largo y ancho del Cinturón Volcánico Transmexicano (TMVB), en 120 afloramientos (1066 muestras orientadas) de edades comprendidas entre el Mioceno Superior y la actualidad.
