Ionic Liquid Electrolytes for Extreme Temperature Conditions: Challenges and Perspective
Ionic liquids (ILs) have gained great attention as safe electrolyte components in recent years. This review elucidates the temperature effects on IL‐based electrolytes from molecular configurations, physicochemical properties, and interfacial chemistry, raises the challenges and design strategies operating at low‐ and HT, providing valuable guidance ...

Indonesian Landforms and Plate Tectonics
DOI: 10.17014/ijog.v5i3.103The horizontal configuration and vertical dimension of the landforms occurring in the tectonically unstable parts of Indonesia were resulted in the first place from plate tectonics.

On the plate tectonics hypothesis
The history of the origin and use of the hypothesis of plate tectonics on the continents, oceans and in the transition zones are analyzed. Its contradiction with basic facts of geological history and geophysical data for these regions has been shown.

Deconstructing Tectonics: Ten Animated Explorations
The configuration of continents and oceans of our tectonically active planet is ever changing. Using new, high‐resolution paleogeographic base maps, we created a set of animations that examine key elements of plate tectonics.

Plate tectonics is the root concept underpinning our current knowledge of how Earth's internal dynamics are linked to geologic deformation at the surface. Since the discovery of plate tectonics in the 1960s, geoscientists have developed a first-order understanding of a plate system in which the Earth's surface is broken into about a dozen mostly rigid ...

Driving mechanisms for plate tectonics
Esta generalmente aceptada la idea de que el motor de la tectónica de placas sea algún tipo de convección térmica. La fuerza impelente puede aplicarse dentro de la placa, o bien puede transmitirse a la placa desde abajo.

Earth's Earliest Phaneritic Ultramafic Rocks: Mantle Slices or Crustal Cumulates?
When plate tectonics initiated remains uncertain, partly because many signals interpreted as diagnostic of plate tectonics can be alternatively explained via hot stagnant‐lid tectonics.

Plate tectonics and Russian geology
A wide distribution of the US hypothesis of plate tectonics in the geological enterprises, in the geological universities of the country and in the editorial of the geological journals has been considered. This hypothesis was created 50 years ago and was
