A vast stretch of land at the bottom of the sea to be recognized as the eighth continent Zealand
WELLINGTON … News Time
New Zealand geologists have demanded a vast piece of land at the bottom of the sea recognized as the eighth continent of Zealandia. He demanded in a recent report published by the Geological Society of America’s Research Journal that’s about two-thirds of the neighboring continent of Zealandia Australia area which covers 50 million square kilometers. The Zealandia is almost 94 percent below the sea surface, while only 6 percent above sea level which is in addition to some small islands in the South and North, New Zealand and New Caledonia can be seen in the case of large pieces of land. The region is not new to the provision of separate continents but it was believed they were studying the geology of New Zealand’s Nick Mortimer past 20 years, and the figures were busy collecting because of this new continent.
Large pieces of land are generally regarded as a continent whose number is now 7, including Antarctica, Australia, Asia, Europe, Africa, North America and South America. New Zealand is known about the Australian geological plate (tectonic part of the plates) it can not be classified as a separate continent. The popular opinion disagreed Nick Mortimer and his colleagues began to take stock of New Zealand and underwater geological structures located in the outskirts. Now they say that the proposed Zealandia are all features that should be in a separate continent. That is relatively higher than the surrounding geological structures, its unique geological features, The area of the Crust (crust) is even more fat than normal thickness of the seabed is clear and measurable.
They are not given on the basis of all these things, just different names Zealandia but it is recognized internationally as the world’s eighth continent. But the decision will not be so easy and straight forward because the experts do not currently exist any organization of Geology that such a force could be the eighth continent in the world and to review the details of the claim or the official (official) is not. There are Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Astronomy and of international organizations, etc. The ratings are also changes in their ratings and reviews are always needed. The famous example occurred in 2006 when the International Astronomical Grain (AU) had a long discussion after the new definition of planets in the solar system and removed from the list of planets Pluto, which had been declared a dwarf planet (Dwarf Planet). Since then the world has changed in textbook definition of planets today, children are 8 major planets (Major Planets) in the solar system and includes land which we are familiar from Five dwarf planets Pluto,, Ceres, Eris, Hamia and Maky. Achieving the status of the world’s eighth continent Zealandia same pattern will be very difficult but it is very possible that the experts could review its mandate in this regard and geology organization may come to soon find a solution to this problem. Let’s say that Wellington, a sanctuary of wildlife in New Zealand Karori Wildlife Sanctuary is the new name Zealandia and inspired by the geologists have chosen a name for the proposed eighth continent.
