Geophysical model of the opening and closing of rifts
The Wilson Cycle is a model that describes the opening and closing of ocean basins and the subduction and divergence of tectonic plates during the assembly and disassembly of supercontinents. A classic example of the Wilson Cycle is the opening and closing of the Atlantic Ocean. It has been suggested that Wilson cycles on Earth started about 3 Ga in the Archean Eon.[1] The Wilson Cycle model was a key development in the theory of plate tectonics during the Plate Tectonics Revolution.
