Everywhere where you have a subduction zone, like the pacific ring of fire, you get **tons of volcanism**. Oceanic then starts to get overrun by the terrestrial crust, you get what is called an **subduction zone**. The connection between the oceanic crust (grey) and the terran crust (orange) breaks. Actually its pushed inwards, because you have stage 3 and 4 on other places on the globe, but stronger. ![]() () The land to both sides is no longer pushed outwards. Not much happens, but you get an big ocean.ĥ. The land on both ends is pushed outwards, like the atlantic. () The mid ocean ridge continues to produce a ton of material. **Mid ocean ridges are higher than the highest mountains**Ĥ. The two lines that follow the sea also have **tons of volcanoes, but under the sea**. () In the middle of the three lines, underneath the crust is your plume of hot material. The placement of the volcanoes is not random. Just like the red sea you still have **a lot of vulcanism all around**. **This is the beginning of a new ocean.** You see it happening in the red sea. The middle part fills up with heavy material from all the volcanoes and sinks down. You also get **volcanoes** directly on top of the plume.ģ. It also **breaks** in this stage of the cycle you very often get **rivers flowing through the rift**. This means your poor old continent starts to get a couple wrinkles and rises up. It then 'bumps' into the underbelly or your old continent. () From the lower parts of the earth, a plume of hot material begins to rise. Since it is so old, it is also pretty flat, because if got eroded so much.Ģ. ![]() CIV V WORLDBUILDER SETTING STARTING POINTS SERIESThe wilson cycle describes a **recurring series of tectonic events**.ġ. Pictures here under CC-BY-SA by Hannes Grobe Now you all know the basic principle behind that but there is something a bit more complicated you probably have never heard of: its called **the wilson cycle**. Plate tectonics are one of the most important factors in how continents look. I will make it as easy and short as possible, without using any big words. Please dont misunderstand this as critique: its merely another tool to get more believable continents.
