On the origin of the World Ocean

Abstract

This article explains in a fundamentally new way the formation of mid-ocean ridges, which the advocates of neomobilism claim to be the main effective force of the theory of lithospheric plates. These ridges are not the zones of spreading of the Earth's crust but the planetary-size folds of injection of asthenosphere plastic rocks. There had not been granite stratum under the oceans primordially as it is formed in geo-synclinals, which couldn't be found out of bounds of the continents. The development of the World Ocean is caused not only by the endogenous (primitive) water, but by the exogenous water, which is exudated by living organisms, as well. The areas of the initial Earth which hadn't gone through the geosynclinal path of development became the Ocean floor. And its sides are the borders of mainlands elevated for several kilometers by isostasy forces.
