The convection currents running through the asthenosphere are widely believed to be the source of movement of the tectonic plates.

Convection Currents affect earth by slowly moving the tectonic plates
The upper mantle contains convection currents that move the tectonic plates.
Tectonic convection is the movement of Earth's lithosphere caused by the heat generated from the decay of radioactive elements in the mantle. This movement drives the motion of tectonic plates, leading to processes such as plate subduction, seafloor spreading, and mountain building. It plays a significant role in shaping the Earth's surface and is responsible for phenomena like earthquakes and volcanic activity.
