No wonder, then, that this idea, developed in the 1960s but Tectonism is the deformation of the lithosphere, and the term tectonics refers to the study of this deformation, including its causes and effects, most notably mountain building. How could such glaciation occur on a mountain that did not exist until after the Flood? This is in contradistinction to the idea that all the high mountains of the world were . Plate tectonics works hand in hand with several other striking concepts and discoveries, including continental drift and the many changes in Earth's magnetic field that have taken place over its history. Recent progress on earthquake geology / edited by Pierpaolo Guarnieri New York : Nova Science, c2010. Plate tectonics : continental drift and mountain building. There tend to be some major faults and earthquakes created as the jagged pieces snag going by, but transform boundaries are conservative with no trenches or major mountain building. Pamela: Alfred put forward the idea of continental drift that once upon a time, long, long, long ago, like order of 225-250 million years ago back in the Permian Period maybe all the continents formed one giant continent called Pangaea. These cycles of continental drift have produced many episodes of mountain building.

Plate Tectonics: Continental Drift and Mountain Building Wolfgang Frisch, Martin Meschede, Ronald C. Whereas the notion of plate tectonics is a unifying concept, the topic of continental drift is the part of knowledge from which plate tectonics sprang. The Society's writers are not unaware of the facts that high mountains existed prior to the Flood, that plate tectonics explains their formation, and even that mountains have gone through many cycles of creation and destruction.
