Chilly manufacturing of recent seafloor

Magma steadily emerges between oceanic plates. It pushes the plates aside, builds massive underwater mountains and varieties new seafloor. This is among the basic processes that continuously change the face of the Earth. However there are additionally instances when new seabed is created with none volcanism, by un-roofing mantle materials straight on the seafloor. Scientists have now revealed the primary estimation based mostly on seismic information on how a lot seafloor is produced this manner.
