What is Seafloor Spreading Analysis Activity about?

This document discusses seafloor spreading and analyzing seafloor age data using GeoMapApp. Students will analyze age-distance profiles from different oceans to calculate seafloor spreading rates. Profiles from the South Atlantic, South Pacific, and Indian Ocean show a range of spreading rates. Symmetry of profiles indicates equal spreading on either side of ridges. Rates vary over time and between locations, supporting plate tectonics.
