Annoying Errors in the Theories of Subduction zones, Plate Tectonics, and Spreading Zones
This paper argues that the theory of plate tectonics contains fundamental errors regarding subduction and spreading zones because it allegedly ignores objective physicochemical parameters, specifically the thermal expansion coefficient of basalt, which the author claims proves that temperature-induced density changes are insufficient to drive plate movement.
