Thesis Abstract
Abstract
**
This research delves into the formation and evolution of ocean basins, aiming to elucidate the geological processes and tectonic mechanisms shaping the Earth's marine realms. By synthesizing geological, geophysical, and geochemical data, the study investigates the initiation of ocean basin formation, the development of mid-ocean ridges, the evolution of passive continental margins, and the role of subduction zones in oceanic crust recycling. Through analysis of seafloor spreading patterns, magnetic anomalies, and bathymetric data, the research aims to unravel the complex interplay between mantle convection, plate tectonics, and crustal accretion in shaping the dynamic features of ocean basins.
