The breakup of the supercontinent and formation of the current Afro-Eurasia landmass were caused by movement of Earth’s tectonic plates. The position of these tectonic plates is preserved in magnetic fields in rocks. These remnant magnetic fields can help generate apparent polar wander paths (APWPs). Researchers have now constructed an APWP of southwest Japan and compared it to that of East Asia, shedding light on the interaction between the Asian continent and southwest Japan.
