Geologist challenges plate tectonics over continental drift
Geologist Paul D. Lowman Jr of NASA Goddard argues continents have remained fixed while ocean floors move, a view opposing common continental drift. He contends plate tectonics can exist without drift, with sea-floor spreading at ridges and subduction at zones, and says fossil distribution is weaker support for drift. See GEOLOGY, Page 13A.
