He proposed the theory of seafloor spreading based upon this evidence and newly published maps of the seafloor topography indicating the existence of a world wide mid ocean ridge system.

New ocean floor is constantly being produced in the process known as?
There are three processes that add material to the ocean floor: Sedimentation, and Vulcanism. Sedimentation is usually caused by skeletons of sea animals falling to the ocean floor. It can be argued that this is not new material but only recycled materials. But some of the remains are calcium or other deposits that are added from land based run off. Silt deposits also run into the ocean floor from the land, Vulcanism results from shifts in the ocean mantle with new material coming from deeper in the earth and spouting through volcanoes or emerging as new ocean floor at the rising edges of the tectonic plates.
What is super-relativity?
As defined by a patent "The Theory of Super Relativity is a proposed Theory of Everything that extends Albert Einsteins Relativity Theory. It is based on the Classical physics concept of a Tensor Field which describes space as a variable geometric quantity. All material objects are made from this object which is space itself, and force is mediated by this object.

What is the movement of continents called?
The movement of continents is called the theory of continental drift. It is based upon the theory that the contininents are floating are large tectonic plates that are moved by seafloor spreading which is the same process that creates new land.
