Regional Planner — Lesson 2
Lesson 2 covers the global structure of Earth's surface and the dynamic geological forces that shape it, including plate tectonics, land area distribution, ocean basins, and Earth's geomagnetic field. Plate tectonics acts as the unifying theory of Earth science, explaining the distribution of earthquakes, volcanoes, mountain ranges, and ocean basins across Earth's lithosphere, which is divided into approximately 15 major tectonic plates and several smaller ones moving at rates of 1–10 centimeters per year. Earth's surface is divided into land areas covering approximately 148.9 million square kilometers (29.2% of Earth's surface) and water covering the remaining 70.8%, distributed across seven continents and major ocean basins.
