Tectonic process in associated with convection currents?
Yes, it is believed that the movements of Plate Tectonics is generated by the convection currents in the mantle. The continents are made up of rocks somewhat lighter than the dense dark-coloured volcanic rocks of the interior. They therefore float on the denser rocks. The same convection currents, or the net effect of them, is believed to generate the electric currents that produce the Earth's magnetic field.
How thick are the convection currents?
The convection currents are in the mantle😱
Convection currents discovered date?

Do scientists think plates are moved by convection currents or volcanoes?
convection currents.
Is it true that wind are examples of convection currents?
Not conduction, but convection currents, are what drive winds and many ocean currents.
How are convection currents astenosphere and lithospheric plates related?
lithosphereic plates are the cooler plates. they help everyone with their convection.
What do convection currents in the asthenosphere cause?
The convection currents running through the asthenosphere are widely believed to be the source of movement of the tectonic plates.
What causes the convection currents in the asthenosphere?
The convection currents running through the asthenosphere are widely believed to be the source of movement of the tectonic plates.

What is the relationship between convection currents in the ocean and convection currents in the atmosphere?
Which best explains the relationship between ocean currents and convection currents?(1 point) Responses Convection currents join with the Coriolis effect to create the winds that drive ocean currents. Convection currents join with the Coriolis effect to create the winds that drive ocean currents. Ocean currents rely on warm convection currents to strength the Coriolis effect. Ocean currents rely on warm convection currents to strength the Coriolis effect. Ocean currents create a Coriolis effect that increases convection currents. Ocean currents create a Coriolis effect that increases convection currents. Convection currents use the Coriolis effect to generate ocean currents.
