Scientific paper

Work on plate motions published in 1983-1986 and in early 1987 is reviewed. Models for these motions, including global ones for driving forces and local ones for subduction history and back-arc spreading, are addressed. The problem of reference frames, both hotspot and paleomagnetic, is discussed. The assessment of errors in plate motion studies is reviewed.
