  • "Examines information about continental drift gathered from deep sea research."@en
  • "Shows footage of earthquakes and volcanoes; explains these events in terms of plate tectonics by means of animation; explores life around an underwater vent."@en
  • "Explains that the earth's crust is fragmented into 12 major plates; describes 3 kinds of plate behavior: divergence, convergence, and translation; and examines information about continental drift gathered from deep sea research."@en
  • "Explains plate tectonics in the earth's crust."@en
  • "Live-action footage of earthquakes and volcanoes dramatizes changes in the earth's crust. Animation explains these changes in terms of plate tectonics."@en
  • "Examines plate tectonics and continental drift. Shows underwater exploration of the mid-Atlantic Ridge, and studies of the Cayman Trough in the Caribbean, and the Galapagos Rift off the coast of South America."
  • "Animation and supporting live-action footage are used to explain the three kinds of plate behavior which shape the earth's crust: divergence, occurring when two plates separate and new crust is created; convergence, occurring when two plates collide and crust is destroyed; and translation, occurring when two plates grind past each other, neither creating or destroying crust."
