This report studies the trajectories of terrane movement across the Pacific basin and along the margin of North America and looks at possible points of origin of the terranes. More than 12 tables and 40 figures of unusually high quality. Special computer software was created to simulate terrane movement and plate age.
Methods and results of Terrane Trajectories, Plaeolatitude versus Time, and Coastwise Translation are presented. Models and data were compared, and trajectories were tested for internal consistency with paleomagnetic results.
