The TRANSFORMERS project investigates oceanic transform faults, challenging existing plate tectonic theories. It aims to understand their complex behavior and seismic activity through extensive ocean floor surveys.
The plate tectonic revolution gave birth to three types of plate boundaries; two got most of the interest, i.e., the mid-ocean ridges where new ocean floor is formed and subduction zones where the lithosphere is recycled back into the Earth’s interior.
In the oceans, the third type, the “simple” strike-slip conservative plate boundary or oceanic transform fault (OTF), was treated like an orphan in a Charles Dickens novel.
However, recent observations challenge plate tectonics, revealing that OTF…
