Tectonic Wave vs Pangea

The theory of Pangea or Gondwana is the accepted theories because the continents appear to fit just like a puzzle. It visibly looks like the two continent belong together, and the continents simply moved apart. The Tectonic Plate theory, speculates that the plates moved like one solid plate so when they broke apart they retained their shapes. What makes it more compelling is the crust of South America materials someone match the material of the continent of Africa. All this makes these theories believable, and simplifies the current shapes of the continents.

However with current GPS tracking of the crust material we know that the crust moves, it flexes and does not always moves in the same directions. This begs the question, why would the crust material maintain the same shape it had when it broke from the other continent millions of years ago. Or is there something else shaping the continents. The Tectonic Wave theory gives us another reason for the puzzle like pieces. A force that shapes the coastlines of the continents and why the continents appear to fit like a puzzle. 

 

 

 


The Tectonic Wave theory, suggest that the forces on the crust material comes from the ridges. As Mid-Atlantic Ridge material surfaces along the crack in the earth it flows away from the ridge. At the equator the material flows to the west and east, along the ridge seams, which looks almost like a seam on a baseball. The material flows westerly and easterly at equal speeds and distance from the ridge. The materials is responsible for moving and shape the coastline of the continents. The ridge material acts like a large bulldozer shaping the coastline. Both continents are almost equal distance from the Mid- Atlantic Ridge line which means the material is flowing at the same rates in both directions. 

So under the parameters of the Tectonic Wave theory, the continents were and are being shaped by material from the ridges. Which would account for why crust material of South America and Africa appear to be the same, because they were produced at the same time from same source. Which means the puzzle shaped of the coastline was shaped and not a result of continents detaching from each other. The two continents that appeared to be once connected, may never have been.
