| The continents before and after the second most recent shift. |
That mechanism is continental shift.
Our earth experiences long periods of calm, where the continents drift slowly or remain completely static. The movement is kept tranquil because the earth's magnetic field keeps the magma in a semi-solid state. Why? Because the iron content in the magma link together to form a web that slows the liquid rock.
However, the magnetic poles come and go over time. During the times when the magnetic poles disappear the iron content in the magma unchain and it becomes more liquified and volatile.You can understand this better, and have a little fun at the same time, by mixing iron filings with vegetable oil. The resulting mixture will be a viscous liquid until you hold a magnet to the container - then it becomes solid. If you get the mixture right, you can turn the container upside down and the fluid will not pour out - held in place by a matrix of iron filings stuck together by the magnetic field.
The same thing happens under our feet. When the geomagnetic field disappears, seismic activity increases until a point where the tectonic plates shift violently. The volcanic activity at the plate boundaries darken the skies and poison the seas. The earth's crust buckles, adding height to mountain ranges and creating new valleys.
Continents may sink and ocean floors may rise - causing widespread flooding. The earthquakes, volcanism, toxic rain and flooding kill the majority of our planet's species. They then become fossilized because of a rapid burial by the silt-laden floods.
Also, the magnetic field shields the planet from cosmic radiation. So during this period, higher levels of harmful radiation reach the Earth's surface and contribute to the devastation.
The increased movement of the cataclysm causes the geomagnetic field to spin back up to full force and slow, or stop, the movement of the plates again. These cataclysms probably last between a few months to several years.
The surviving plants and animals pioneer the new planet and begin to evolve rapidly to fill the now-empty ecological niches. Read more about how these events cause sporadic evolution or "punctuated equilibrium"- Read: Punctuated Equilibrium: What Causes It?
Earth is currently experiencing a weakening of the magnetic poles, plus their usual migration is changing direction and increasing in speed. The anomalies of the geomagnetic field are also increasing in size and number all around the planet. We could very well be entering a new era where our planet becomes more and more seismically volatile as we approach that point in the future when our planet will repeat this natural cycle and experience another great extinction event. Scientists claim that the magnetosphere cycles every 200 million years, but I believe it is closer to every 10,000 years. Read: Science and Religion: Both Dating Methods Are Wrong
