Internet Problem 1: Plate Tectonics and the Age of the Ocean Crust
Please note:
The Internet problems are designed to be completed individually; however you may discuss
difficult questions in Open Discussion.
You should read the information found at the website and answer in your own words. I remind
you that cutting and pasting answers directly from a website is consider plagiarism, and you will
receive a 0 (zero) on the assignment.
If you choose to submit your answers in an attached file, please do so in .rtf, .pdf or .doc file
format.
Please keep digital copies (back-ups) of all your submitted work. In the unlikely, but possible,
instance that your hard work is “lost in digital space”, you can resubmit the assignment without
having to redo it!!
Internet Problem 1: The Age of the Ocean Floor Age
Log-in to the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) website and
by reading the map and providing answer the questions below.
NOAA : http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/mgg/image/WorldCrustalAge.gif
If you are having problems opening this link, there are a variety of versions of this map, in various
formats, available at:
https://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/mgg/image/crustalimages.html.
A few hints: This is a three-dimensional relief map of the ocean floor showing the age of the
oceanic crust at different locations. The key for the color scales is found along the bottom of
the map.
If you click on the map it should zoom in.
To learn more about how these maps are made and interpreted go to:
http://www.ucmp.berkeley.edu/tectonics/atlantic.html
Remember the water in the ocean has been collecting for almost 4 billion years, and the oldest
ocean floor is much younger.
Questions:
1) How old is the oldest oceanic crust in the:
Indian Ocean:
Atlantic Ocean:
Pacific Ocean:
2) How old is the oceanic crust that is found along the coastline of Northern California?
3) In the Pacific Ocean, where is the oldest oceanic crust located (generally)?
4) In the Pacific Ocean, where is the youngest oceanic crust located?
5) In general terms, describe the distribution of youngest and oldest crust in the Atlantic Ocean
Basin.
6) Look the Pacific Ocean Basin and compare it to the Atlantic. Specifically look at the oldest /
youngest oceanic crust patterns. Are these ocean basins alike or different; could they be both?
Explain and be specific.
7) How does the information given on this map of the age of the oceanic crust support the
Theory of Plate Tectonics?
8-9) By synthesizing the information from this map and your reading, can you draw a
correlation between the different ocean floor topographic features and the age of crustal
material (rock)?
Explain your reasoning:
10) List several other “lines of evidence” that support the Plate Tectonics Theory?
