An atlas of Phanerozoic paleogeographic maps: the seas come in and the seas go out
CR Scotese - Annual Review of Earth and Planetary Sciences, 2021 - annualreviews.org
Paleogeography is the study of the changing surface of Earth through time. Driven by plate
tectonics, the configuration of the continents and ocean basins has been in constant flux …

A global plate model including lithospheric deformation along major rifts and orogens since the Triassic
Global deep‐time plate motion models have traditionally followed a classical rigid plate
approach, even though plate deformation is known to be significant. Here we present a …

How Large Igneous Provinces affect global climate, sometimes cause mass extinctions, and represent natural markers in the geological record
Abstract Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) can have a significant global climatic effect as
monitored by sedimentary trace and isotopic compositions that record paleo …

[HTML][HTML] The Eocene–Oligocene transition: a review of marine and terrestrial proxy data, models and model–data comparisons
Abstract The Eocene–Oligocene transition (EOT) was a climate shift from a largely ice-free
greenhouse world to an icehouse climate, involving the first major glaciation of Antarctica …

Continental arc volcanism as the principal driver of icehouse-greenhouse variability
Variations in continental volcanic arc emissions have the potential to control atmospheric
carbon dioxide (CO2) levels and climate change on multimillion-year time scales. Here we …
