6 What is Wegeners hypothesis. Alfred Wegener proposed two different mechanisms for continental drift. Fossil Evidence To Support Alfred Wegner S Continential Drift Theory Continental Drift Pangaea Continental Drift Theory Continental Drift Plate Tectonics 5 What is fossil evidence. . Wegener himself did not collect the fossils but he called attention to the idea of using these scientific doc uments stating there. As weve studied this idea over the decades however it has come to be the accepted theory of why our land areas are in their current location. Ongoing GPS and earthquake data analyses continue to support this theory. Wegener thought continental drift was the key to these climatic puzzles so he and Vladimir Koppen plotted ancient deserts jungles and ice sheets on paleogeographic maps based on Wegeners theory. He used several pieces of evidence to support his theory including fossils rocks glacial markings coal depo...
