This material reached the surface at oceanic ridges and returned to the earth at subducting oceanic trenches. ... This expansion rate may be difficult to detect at the intermolecular level, but for an object the size of the earth, the expansion should be apparent as shown with a little further development of this idea. If the earth is expanding at the same rate as new material is upwelling, then this expansion becomes a new driving force behind continental drift, as well as other proven causes. ... The reason for this in the fixed earth scenario has been explained in the past by the possible existence of various land bridges. ... The earth expansion theory would nicely explain all the cross hatching shown on the Mid - Oceanic Ridges. ...
