Magnetic Seafloor Anomalies
Global map of magnetic anomalies imprinted onto the seafloor of the Earth in form of characteristic stripes and other patterns.
Seafloor spreading is illustrated in this collection of accurate, accessible science graphics, designed to make understanding how new oceanic crust forms at mid-ocean ridges clear and engaging. These visuals show tectonic plates diverging, magma upwelling, and the creation of new seafloor, highlighting its role in plate tectonics, volcanic activity, and ocean basin evolution. Ideal for educators, students, and geoscience enthusiasts, this seafloor spreading graphic collection turns complex geological processes into visually rich, easy-to-grasp resources for teaching and learning about Earth’s dynamic ocean floors.
