摘要如下:
The Earth is the only planet in our solar system with continents. Continents
provide the habitat in which our species evolved, as well as the sustenance we
need to survive. Yet how continents form, as well as when they formed, is
still a matter of debate. This lecture will review current thinking on what
continents are made of, and how they may have formed and evolved through time.
