The Vine–Matthews–Morley hypothesis, also known as the Morley–Vine–Matthews hypothesis, was the first key scientific test of the seafloor spreading theory of continental drift and plate tectonics. Its key impact was that it allowed the rates of plate motions at mid-ocean ridges to be computed.
Frederick John Vine FRS (17 June 1939 – 21 June 2024) was an English marine geologist and geophysicist.He made key contributions to the theory of plate tectonics, helping to show that the seafloor spreads from mid-ocean ridges with a symmetrical pattern of magnetic reversals in the basalt rocks on either side.
Drummond Matthews (left) and Frederick Vine, 1981. Drummond Hoyle Matthews FRS [1] (5 February 1931 – 20 July 1997), known as "Drum", [2] was a British marine geologist and geophysicist and a key contributor to the theory of plate tectonics.
Wegener said that of all those theories, Taylor's had the most similarities to his own. For a time in the mid-20th century, the theory of continental drift was referred to as the "Taylor-Wegener hypothesis". [26] [29] [30] [31] Alfred Wegener first presented his hypothesis to the German Geological Society on 6 January 1912. [5]
High A – E-A-d-g-b-e'-a' – Standard tuning with a high 'A' instead of a low 'B'. Because of the high pitch of the 'A' string, it usually requires a multi-scale fingerboard (fanned frets) to provide enough tension. C tuning – C-F-A ♯-d ♯-g-c'-f' / C-F-B ♭-e ♭-g-c'-f'
Minor chords are noted with a dash after the number or a lowercase m; in the key of D, 1 is D major, and 4- or 4m would be G minor. Often in the NNS, songs in minor keys will be written in the 6- of the relative major key. So if the song was in G minor, the key would be listed as B ♭ major, and G minor chords would appear as 6-.
A contrafact is a musical composition built using the chord progression of a pre-existing song, but with a new melody and arrangement.Typically the original tune's progression and song form will be reused but occasionally just a section will be reused in the new composition.
It does not accurately represent the chord progressions of all the songs it depicts. It was originally written in D major (thus the progression being D major, A major, B minor, G major) and performed live in the key of E major (thus using the chords E major, B major, C♯ minor, and A major). The song was subsequently published on YouTube. [9]
