Summary

DescriptionGlobal Map of Oceanic Plate Age by Fabio Crameri.png
English: Visually accessible global maps of oceanic plate age designed for color-blind readers by Fabio Crameri. And shared openly via https://s-ink.org/oceanic-plate-age-poster . Highlighted are subduction zones (wide black lines) and other plate boundaries (thin black lines). Plate ages range from 0 (depicted in light colours)——to approximately 200 Million years (depicted in dark colours), illustrating the——dynamic process of ongoing plate motion and "recycling through ocean-plate tectonics." This comprehensive representation is based on global oceanic plate age data from Müller et al. (1997), visualised on a custom Interrupted Mollweide map projection developed by Crameri et al. (2020a), with a specific focus on the world’s oceans. The ‘batlow‘ Scientific color map (Crameri et al., 2020b) ensures accurate data representation and inclusivity for all readers.
