GPlates is an open‐source, cross‐platform plate tectonic geographic information system,
enabling the interactive manipulation of plate‐tectonic reconstructions and the visualization …

The age of the ocean floor and its time-dependent age distribution control fundamental
features of the Earth, such as bathymetry, sea level and mantle heat loss. Recently, the …

Vertical intraplate motions are not easily related to plate tectonics. Understanding their
underlying mechanism is further complicated by poor constraints on the magnitude and …

Abstract The North Atlantic realm is strongly affected by the Iceland–Jan Mayen mantle-
hotspot system. Its strength has varied over time, with consequences for evolving plate …

Most authors agree that parts of the Caribbean plate are an igneous Plateau underlain by
Farallon lithosphere that was trapped in between the North and South American plates …

Abstract The Scotia Sea in the South Atlantic holds a prominent position in geodynamics,
because it has been proposed as a potential outlet of asthenosphere from under the …

In recent years GPU computing has gained wide acceptance as a simple low-cost solution
for speeding up computationally expensive processing in many scientific and engineering …

The study presents the insights of the tectonic development and geological settings of the
Atlantic Ocean supported by cartographic visualization in Generic Mapping Tools (GMT) …

Abstract The Pacific Ocean is surrounded by subduction zone systems leading to a
decreasing surface area as well as sub-surface mantle domain. In contrast, the Atlantic …

We describe the development of a web mapping service called PAMS–A Paleolocation
Mapping Service. PAMS generates and maps the paleographic location of any given point …
