A🧵of some of my graphics on tectonics.

1/ The "world premiere"😉of my summary graphic on the main processes at work causing plates motion. I shared this in my #GAConf22 session this afternoon, but now it's time to share it more widely!
2/ Blank versions of the above if you want to incorporate them into your own presentations for your pupils.
3/ A gif to show how the plates move primarily due to gravitational slide as cold, dense lithosphere sinks into the mantle (aided by the sliding of new plate material down the slopes at the divergent margins). The plates thus drive convection, rather than being driven by it.
