The breakup of the former Pangea supercontinent culminated in the modern drifting
continents. Increased rifting caused the establishment of the Atlantic Ocean in the middle …

摘要 The breakup of the former Pangea supercontinent culminated in the modern drifting
continents. An explosion of calcareous nannoplankton and foraminifers in the warm seas …

The supercontinent Pangea completes its assembly and moves north during the Permian.
The 47-million-year-long period begins with a great ice age and ends with the Earth's …

The Neogene oceans and continents were mosaicked to form a paleogeography similar to
today and exposed to the warm conditions of the mid Neogene to the cooling toward the …

The Triassic is bound by two mass extinctions that coincide with vast outpourings of volcanic
flood basalts. The Mesozoic begins with a gradual recovery of plant and animal life after the …

Several major episodes of Tertiary explosive volcanism coincided with sharply lowered
temperature as inferred from oxygen-isotope composition of foraminiferal tests in deep-sea …

In more than 4 Ga of geological evolution, the Earth has twice gone through extreme climatic
perturbations, when extensive glaciations occurred, together with alternating warm periods …

Geologic secular trends are used to refine the timetable of supercontinent assembly, tenure,
and breakup. The analysis rests on what is meant by the term supercontinent, which here is …

The recovery of life after the latest Permian extinction was protracted over Early Triassic
time. Detailed geochemistry of marine sections along northwest Pangea indicates that …

The earth alternates in a supercycle 400 my long from a single continent (Pangea) and
ocean (Panthalassa) with an icehouse climate to many continents and oceans with a …
