近几年来,美国和日本的科学家们,采用当前世界上最先进的大地测量技术——卫星激光测距法和甚长基线涉步测量法,对大陆漂移情况进行了精度极高的测量,获得了非常有趣的结果: 大西洋正在以每年1.9cm的速度不断加宽;太平洋中的马绍尔群岛的库瓦塞林岛和夏威夷群岛的瓦湖岛正以每年8cm的速度向日本挺进;阿拉斯加的费尔班克 In recent years, scientists in the United States and Japan have used the most advanced geodetic technology in the world, the satellite laser ranging method and the very long baseline measurement method, to measure the drift of the continent with extremely high precision. Very interesting results: The Atlantic Ocean is widening at a rate of 1.9cm per year; the islands of Kuwalseling of the Marshall Islands in the Pacific Ocean and Wahoo Island of the Hawaiian Islands are advancing toward Japan at a rate of 8cm per year; Bank
