Explain the hypothesis know as the sea floor spreading given by Hess
  • 1 answers

Sea-floor spreading — In the early 1960s, Princeton geologist Harry Hess proposed the hypothesis of sea-floor spreading, in which basaltic magma from the mantle rises to create new ocean floor at mid-ocean ridges. On each side of the ridge, sea floor moves from the ridge towards the deep-sea trenches, where it is subducted and recycled back into the mantle . A test of the hypothesis of sea-floor spreading was provided by studies of the Earth's magnetism.
