The Wilson Cycle and Plate Boundaries

[@blackomega2526]

The best man for learning on youtube. I will always recommend prof dave

[@blackomega2526]

Video was amazing as always

[@StevenStaggs1]

🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@Riogrande1964]

For an in-depth dive into the history of this epic discovery, there's nothing better than Henry Frankel's The Continental Drift Controversy (Cambridge Univ. Press, 2017) - 4 volumes. Masterpiece of scholarship and a deep dive into how scientists came to accept a theory that was long considered preposterous.

[@glennpearson9348]

Absolutely fascinating! I think the hardest thing to grasp is the time-scale over which these powerful changes occur. Just like it's difficult to grasp the enormity of distance between our galaxy and those formed 13 billion years ago, it's hard to imagine these processes playing out over hundreds of millions of years. It's so impressively humbling, yet super exciting! Thanks, Professor Dave. Really enjoyed this one.

[@JCO2002]

Saying thanks as a Canadian for discussing Tuzo Wilson's work on plate tectonics. He deserves much more recognition than he's gotten in the past.

[@contextwithjohnmalone]

How does that famous Fleetwood Mac song go? “Ooooh, you make learning fun” I’m pretty sure they say learning 🤣 Dave making science and life more interesting and fun. 🔬❤️

[@waelfadlallah8939]

It's amazing to know that even the land we live on isn't that hard or fixed rather it has fluidity dynamics

[@Polymeron]

I'm starting to see why Plate Tectonics theory met with such stiff resistance in its early days. It requires a hell of a lot of mechanisms and explanations, without which the idea of shifting continents seems mysterious and even absurd. But that's part of the beauty of science... When mysteries abound, people go and research them, and when all the results point in one direction, a new theory is formed.

[@Riogrande1964]

Henry Frankel's Continental Drift Hypothesis (Cambridge, 2017) chronicles scientists' long resistance to the theory... what made the difference, ultimately, was the discovery of sea floor spreading

[@Anatoly-Cherep]

@@Riogrande1964 The sea floor spreading is fine. The subduction and all "plate tectonics" is a poor fantasy. The Earth is definitely expanding!

[@universeusa]

This is one of my favorite KZbin channels. Thanks!

[@loversofgeography]

Great explanation sir you really helped me a lot to clear this topic

[@คุณยายสมฤทัย]

Thanks for all

[@Riogrande1964]

Very well explained and illustrated. Highly recommended.

[@babyblossom1179]

From what i had learned Lake Victoria is not a part of east african rift valley lakes, but it says at 3:20 that it is .... please correct me if i am wrong, or explain. thank you

[@PingSharp]

It is part of the rift Valley system.

[@atlasl25]

hi, anyone konw, when stage 1 the continent separate apart, rifting system, but it is rifting system stops and the subduction begins and consume all the oceanic lithosphere , which they rejoin again? am I right? idk why the divergent system stop.

[@kevinvarghese8557]

Hey professor, what is your opinion on Veritasium?

[@PlayNowWorkLater]

Would slab pull from the subduction of one or more of the tectonic spreading plates be a possible mechanism for passive rifting?

[@operaflute]

Why does the subduction of the old, cold oceanic crust cause the continental crust to reverse direction?

[@mitsunori222000]

Concise and clear as usual.

[@nikoryus]

Hello Dave i have a question about Big Bang, there are some people talking about James Webb Space Telescope disproving The Big Bang Theory and since im just teenage boy i dont understand those things so could you please make video about it or respond to my comment thank you.

[@nikoryus]

@QED thank you

[@Onio_Saiyan]

J Tuzo Wilson in the thumbnail on my tiny phone screen looked like Picard. Anyway, I'mma keep watching.

[@manicmillennial3287]

This has been very fascinating. Thank you Professor Dave!

[@PopeLando]

My name is Wilson. I wish I had been a cool scientist with the middle name Tuzo.

[@atenkenelakelegeinairkunik916]

One day all of this knowledge will be lost and restart the process again lol 😂

[@ZackChannel]

Professor make sure you use the metric system

[@cobyfront6310]

Great informative video, thanks professor dave

[@craignunnallypurcell]

Is it really this simple a circular reasoning ? The planet at 4.54 billion years old may have gotten to different places in its trip around the black hole around the center of our galaxy.

[@RocketboyX]

I wonder how a flat earther would wave away the measurable and verifiable current continental drift?

[@JoeFromDetroit]

Oh I'm sure they would say some BS.

[@glennpearson9348]

They wouldn't have to. They'll just say that all of the land masses slide around on the plate like ice cubes, then go off muttering something about mud floods.

[@columnarbasalt4677]

wait till you hear about the "expanding earth theory" . .

[@Ensaima]

VeCt0r VeCt0r magnetic expansion

[@marcuslaurencenieto7473]

Professor dave made a video about the sun and the stars what is made of People seems to think that the sun and the stars are made of fire

[@sahrazad8213]

its morbin time

[@PsE8]

Thank you so much sir,very helpful in studying...👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@gilbertspader7974]

I am new to your channel and love what you do. I am curious to hear your thoughts on some anomalies in our solar system. How are there artificial radioactive isotopes on Mars ?How was the planet that makes up the asteroid belt destroyed ?Why is mantel on Mercury missing ?Who invented liquid soap and why????????

[@StevenStaggs1]

lmao this guy is a joke and is scientifically on board with gender acceptance. just so u know

[@columnarbasalt4677]

this rocks

[@maribelreyes6840]

LOL!

[@EzhilMaranTamilalaganNagarani]

is lake albert part of the system or lake victoria. i believe it is albert and not victoria

[@rebeccameunier-mandar7289]

Hi! Your videos are always so entertaining. I was wondering if you could submit your references? Sometimes i don't quite understand what you are trying to explain and I would like more details from the scientific articles. Just a thought, thanks !

[@JoKaR80-d5r]

Awesome!

[@slovosch]

Супер! Спасибо за видео!

[@Anatoly-Cherep]

За что спасибо говорите? За бессмысленные ненаучные сказки? Вся "тектоника плит" - детский сад, придуманный от страха признать РАСШИРЕНИЕ ЗЕМЛИ.

[@slovosch]

​@@Anatoly-CherepЯ на Ваш канал тоже подписана, правда с другого аккаунта. Мне очень нравится Ваша точка зрения. Люблю, когда есть альтернативные теории, ведь в споре рождается истина! (В геологии нефти и газа я приверженец неорганики и Кудрявцева 😅) На канале Дэйва информация хорошо структурирована и все по "общепринятой теории". Я использовала его канал для изучения профессиональной лексики и подготовки к лекциям на английском языке (читала курс геологических дисциплин в Китае).

[@Anatoly-Cherep]

@@slovosch Тогда понятно. Основы "общепринятой теории", конечно, здесь хорошо излагаются. Но основы ложные, если присмотреться. Я надеюсь застать при жизни падение "теории толкотни плит". С китайскими геофизиками сталкивался только в России, и у меня впечатление, что они думать об альтернативах не будут. Зачем рисковать при огромной конкуренции? Мне китаец на переговорах в Москве жаловался, что в Штатах стали ограничивать кол-во студентов из Китая и кол-во научных сотрудников в университетах. А куда же больше? Итак, по моим прикидкам, 2/3 докладов на международных конференциях (SEG и т.п.) подают китайцы! Нового от них ничего ждать нельзя - только то, за что гранты дают.

[@sciencenerd7639]

awesome!

Beautiful as always, but fyi, Fuca is pronounced closer to few-ka, whereas it sounded like you said foo-ka.

[@SackbotNinja03]

Cool!!

I love Professor Dave... but... yeah, but. You have too much talent and knowledge to spend all of it spoiling the ramblings of mad people. There is madness that has crossed over into the mainstream and that should be your calling. I know you don't want to dip into politics, but, if that's where the mud is, we need someone to sort through it. You know what I mean.
