The Hadley circulation in the Pangea era

S Zhang, Y Hu, J Yang, X Li, W Kang, J Zhang, Y Liu… - Science Bulletin, 2023 - Elsevier
The Pangea era is an exceptional phase in Earth's history. It is characterized by its hothouse
climate state and the latest supercontinent. Thus, it is expected that atmospheric circulation …
