Arthur Holmes postulated his thermal convec­tion current theory in the year 1928-29 to explain the intricate problems of the origin of major relief features of the earth’s surface. Holmes’ major objectives were not confined to search the mechanism of mountain building based on sound scientific background but were also directed towards finding scientific explana­tion for the origin of the continents and ocean basins in terms of continental drift as he was opposed to the concept of permanency of the continents and ocean basins as envisaged by the advocates of thermal con­traction of the earth
