  • How Volcanoes Work Below: History of Volcanoes While earthquakes and hurricanes often seem the most devastating types of natural disasters, volcanoes can have more wide-ranging effects than either.

Alfred Wegener - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - 8 views

  • Alfred Wegener first thought of this idea by noticing that the different large landmasses of the Earth almost fit together like a jigsaw.
  • The Continental shelf of the Americas fit closely to Africa and Europe, and Antarctica, Australia, India and Madagascar fit next to the tip of Southern Africa.
  • He analyzed either side of the Atlantic Ocean for rock type, geological structures and fossils. He noticed that there was a significant similarity between matching sides of the continents, especially in fossil plants.

  • From 1912, Wegener publicly advocated the theory of "continental drift", arguing that all the continents were once joined together in a single landmass and have drifted apart.
  • In his work, Wegener presented a large amount of very strong

  • evidence in support of continental drift, but the mechanism remained elusive. While his ideas attracted a few early supporters such as Alexander Du Toit from South Africa and Arthur Holmes in England, the hypothesis was generally met with skepticism from largely conservative scientists, who were resistant to any change in the status quo.

  • Wegener's hypothesis fell out of favour.

    Useful pages on Wegener and the people that helped to prove his theory of Continental Drift.

    I agree. I recommend this website as a quick and easy read, learn something new and catch up on the things we have been doing in class.

Buy Verified CashApp Accounts - USA - 0 views

  •  
    There are a few reasons why you might want to have multiple CashApp accounts. Maybe you have different groups of friends that you want to keep separate, or maybe you need one for business and one for personal use. Whatever the reason, it's actually pretty easy to set up more than one account. First, you'll need to create a new account using a different email address or phone number. Once you've done that, open up the Cash App and tap on the icon in the top-left corner. This will bring up a menu where you can select "Add another Cash Card." From here, just follow the prompts to add your new card. Now that you have two accounts set up, there's one more thing to do if you want to keep them completely separate. By default, Cash App will link your bank account to all of your accounts.
