It may be because of the Earth’s natural fault lines in the ocean. One example of this is the “Mid Ocean Ridge.” Magma escapes from the crack and pushes the oceanic crust like a conveyor belt taking the continental crust with it. So, the landmass is probably being pushed. Some people believe it has something to do with the Earth’s rotation.
