Scientific paper

In the last few years, evidence from the apparently unconnected fields of earthquake seismology, gravity, geochemistry, rock mechanics, mineralogy and petrology has come together to provide simple insights into the fundamental geological questions: why do the continents deform differently from the oceans, and why do the ancient interiors of the continents (the cratons) survive apparently intact and undeformed for so long?
