Building on the Juan Fernandez Plate
[edit]·This article could use detail on the boundaries that the Juan Fernandez Plate shares with the Nazca Plate, Antarctica Plate, and Pacific Plate, including spreading rates and movement rates of the ridges. ·Boundary descriptions could also be bolstered with explanations of ridge axes bathymetry. ·It could also use a clear description of its origin including how and when it was formed. ·This plate also needs to be defined as a microplate. The rotational motion of the plate was touched upon but could be elaborated upon greatly.
