Chemical analysis data derived from NERC grant NE/I025573/1, When on Earth did modern plate tectonics begin?

Earth is a dynamic planet, for the simple reason that it is still cooling down from the heat of accretion and subsequent decay of radioactive elements. The main mechanism by which it loses heat is...
