<P>
This package contains the plate tectonic programs <A NAME="tex2html1611"
  HREF="../man/backtracker.html"><I><B>backtracker</B></I></A><A NAME="28393"></A>,
which you can use to move geologic markers forward or backward in time, 
<A NAME="tex2html1612"
  HREF="../man/grdrotater.html"><I><B>grdrotater</B></I></A><A NAME="28398"></A> which rotates entire grids using a finite rotation,
<A NAME="tex2html1613"
  HREF="../man/hotspotter.html"><I><B>hotspotter</B></I></A><A NAME="28403"></A> which generates CVA grids based on seamount locations
and a set of absolute plate motion stage poles (<A NAME="tex2html1614"
  HREF="../man/grdspotter.html"><I><B>grdspotter</B></I></A><A NAME="28408"></A> does the
same using a bathymetry grid instead of seamount locations), <A NAME="tex2html1615"
  HREF="../man/originator.html"><I><B>originator</B></I></A><A NAME="28413"></A>,
which associates seamounts with the most likely hotspot origins, and <A NAME="tex2html1616"
  HREF="../man/rotconverter.html"><I><B>rotconverter</B></I></A><A NAME="28418"></A>
which does various operations involving finite rotations on a sphere.  The package
is maintained by Paul Wessel.
