Relative Motion History of the Pacific-Nazca (Farallon) Plates since 30 Million Years Ago
Relative plate motion history since 30 Ma between the Pacific and the southern portion of the Nazca (Farallon) plates is examined. The history is constrained by available seafloor magnetic anomaly data and a two-minute grid of predicted bathymetry derived from satellite altimetry and shipboard senso...
