Difference between Mantle (geology) and Supercontinent

Mantle (geology) vs. Supercontinent

The mantle is a layer inside a terrestrial planet and some other rocky planetary bodies. In geology, a supercontinent is the assembly of most or all of Earth's continental blocks or cratons to form a single large landmass.

Similarities between Mantle (geology) and Supercontinent

Mantle (geology) and Supercontinent have 9 things in common (in Unionpedia): Continental drift, Earth, Eclogite, Geologic time scale, Iron, Mantle plume, Ophiolite, Plate tectonics, Tibetan Plateau.

Continental drift

Continental drift is the movement of the Earth's continents relative to each other, thus appearing to "drift" across the ocean bed.

Earth

Earth is the third planet from the Sun and the only astronomical object known to harbor life.

Eclogite

Eclogite is a mafic metamorphic rock.

Geologic time scale

The geologic time scale (GTS) is a system of chronological dating that relates geological strata (stratigraphy) to time.

Iron

Iron is a chemical element with symbol Fe (from ferrum) and atomic number 26.

Mantle plume

A mantle plume is an upwelling of abnormally hot rock within the Earth's mantle, first proposed by J. Tuzo Wilson in 1963.

Ophiolite

An ophiolite is a section of the Earth's oceanic crust and the underlying upper mantle that has been uplifted and exposed above sea level and often emplaced onto continental crustal rocks.

Plate tectonics

Plate tectonics (from the Late Latin tectonicus, from the τεκτονικός "pertaining to building") is a scientific theory describing the large-scale motion of seven large plates and the movements of a larger number of smaller plates of the Earth's lithosphere, since tectonic processes began on Earth between 3 and 3.5 billion years ago.

Tibetan Plateau

The Tibetan Plateau, also known in China as the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau or the Qing–Zang Plateau or Himalayan Plateau, is a vast elevated plateau in Central Asia and East Asia, covering most of the Tibet Autonomous Region and Qinghai in western China, as well as part of Ladakh in Jammu and Kashmir, India.
