Convergence supports the theory of seafloor spreading.
Samples of the deep ocean floor are evidence of seafloor spreading because the basaltic oceanic crust and overlapping sediment become younger as the mid-ocean ridge is approached. Also, the rock that makes up the floor of the ocean is younger than the continents.

Three evidence that supports Harry Hess theory of Seafloor Spreading is; 1. Paleomagnetism. 2. Plate Tectonics. 3. Polar Wondering and Polar Reversal.
The ages of the rocks become older the farther the way they are from the ridges. The closer they are the younger it is. This leaves evidence to the seafloor spreading theory.

Seafloor Spreading.
He supported the Seafloor Spreading Theory by first discovering the Continental Drift Theory.
Seafloor spreading helped prove the theory of continental drift. Pangea theory also helped.
Magnetic Reversal
An isochron is a line on a map that connects points that have the same age. An isochron map of the ocean floor supports the theory of seafloor spreading because it shows the older rock near the deep sea trenches and the younger rocks near ocean ridges.
Seafloor Spreading helped move the Continents to their current location.
Lawrence W. Morley, Frederick John Vine, and Drummond Hoyle Matthews were the first to tie magnetic stripe anomalies to seafloor spreading. The magnetic anomalies was the first evidence that supported the theory of seafloor spreading.
