Tectonics Fault Model with detailed representations of the Earth's layers and 11 labeled structures.

• A detailed representations of the Earth's layers to visualize the importance of plate movements in relation to volcanism and seismicity
• Features include both active and passive margins, oceanic ridges with rift valley, Benioff plane, oceanic trenches, continental shelf, and slopes
• Numbered key card identifies 11 features on the model
• Created from PVC and mounted on a sturdy wooden base
• Crafted by subject matter experts, with vibrant, hand-painted details using eco-friendly paint

Provide your students with an innovative look at plate tectonics with this hand-painted plastic model, showing detailed representations of the earth layers. Both active and passive margins are shown addition to oceanic ridges with rift valley, Benioff plane, oceanic trenches, continental shelf and slopes. Use this artistic re-creation to communicate the importance of plate movements in relation to volcanism and seismicity. Oceanic floor spreading is also well characterized to illustrate the development of a rift into a new structure.
