加拿大地球物理学家 Tuzo Wilson 意识到,如果一块在内部固定火山源上移动的表面板块形成了岛屿,就会导致岛屿年龄增加。
Canadian geophysicist Tuzo Wilson realized that this age progression could result if the islands were formed on a surface plate moving over a fixed volcanic source in the interior.
现在看来,它们对推动板块在全球范围内运动的地球物理过程也有重要影响。
It now appears that they also have an important influence on the geophysical processes that propel the plates across the globe.
显然,试图解释和预测磁场变化的地球物理学家必须了解外核发生了什么。
Clearly, geophysicists who seek to explain and forecast changes in the field must understand what happens in the outer core.
