 Continental Drift, Plate Tectonics and Sea-Floor Spreading: A Critical Commentary
Wegener reduces his interpretation of the existence of the continents to the possibility that the single movement of the continents, drifted away from their central resting place in Pangaea, to their present position today, may explain all there is to know about the continents.
The idea of continental drift proposes the possibility that the continents came from a single land mass on a lop-sided Earth from some 200 million years ago, and that the continents are inevitably drifting once again towards a single land mass to be accomplished in another 200 million years.
As we penetrate different views of the distinct levels of the crust of the Earth, from that of the prima facie view of the land masses to the impenetrable depths of the ocean ridges, one is overwhelmed by the simplicity of the symmetries.

 [No title]
Article 76 provides technical guidance in the process of claiming continental shelf beyond 200 nautical miles if there is a "natural prolongation" of the coastal state's landmass outside of that distance.
The section describes how the outer limit of the continental shelf may be defined according to the position of the foot of the continental slope and either geodetic measurements or patterns of sediment thickness variation oceanward of it.
In terms of the oil industry exploration/exploitation processes, the areas of potential "extended" continental shelf are characterized by mostly "deep" or "ultra-deep" water.

 Continental Air Defense: A Dedicated Force Is No Longer Needed (Letter Report, ...
Consequently, the Chairman concluded that the dedicated force could be significantly reduced or eliminated and that existing active and reserve general-purpose combat and training forces could be tasked to perform the continental air defense mission.\2 The Chairman expected that his recommendations would result in significant savings in personnel and operating costs.
Active and reserve general-purpose and training forces could perform these missions because they have comparable or more capable aircraft, are located at or near most existing continental air defense bases and alert sites, and have pilots capable of performing air sovereignty missions or being trained to perform such missions.
However, our September 1993 report on drug control efforts noted that the continental air defense force might be ineffective in detecting, monitoring, and apprehending drug smugglers because direct drug-smuggling flights into the United States essentially ended years ago and jet fighter aircraft cannot effectively track slow, low-flying, drug-smuggling planes.

Much of the rich soil of the Midwest is glacial in origin, and the drainage patterns of the Ohio River and the position of the Great Lakes were influenced by the ice.

One of the exciting new advances in geology since the early 1960's has been the realization that the continents and substantial parts of the bordering ocean floor have slowly moved with respect to each other and that the outermost layer of the Earth's crust is made up of lithospheric plates.
