   Using new information gathered from three research cruises to Antarctica, a scientific team led by Steven Cande of Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California, San Diego, has located the final missing geological piece in a puzzle of plate tectonics in the Southwest Pacific Ocean.
   ...
   "Over the years, there has been a lot of interest in knowing about the correct plate motion around Antarctica because that is the key to understanding the motions between the Pacific plate and North American plate, and for understanding the geology of East and West Antarctica," said Cande, a professor of geophysics at Scripps and lead author of the paper.
   ...
   In the Nature article, Cande, along with Joann Stock of the California Institute of Technology, Dietmar Muller of the University of Sydney, and Takemi Ishihara of the Geological Survey of Japan, reports new information about the magnetics, gravity, and bathymetry in key areas of the south Tasman Sea and the northern Ross Sea.
   ...
   This "Adare Trough" region, Cande and the other researchers calculated, was the site of approximately 180 kilometers of separation between 43 million and 26 million years ago.
   
   The inclusion of this East-West Antarctic motion in the global plate circuit explains a gap between the Pacific and Australian plates.The Adare Trough region subsequently becomes the final critical missing plate boundary in the Southwest Pacific.The researchers note that inclusion of this motion will modify plate motion history associated with the Alpine Fault in New Zealand and affect global issues such as motion between hot spots in the Pacific and Indo-Atlantic Oceans."The new data helps it all fit together," said Cande.
