The late Paleozoic to Tertiary stratigraphic record of much of the African plate reflects the
effects of continental rifting and passive margin development. Several short-lived, but …

We have created a digital age grid of the ocean floor with a grid node interval of 6 arc min
using a self‐consistent set of global isochrons and associated plate reconstruction poles …

An improved tectonic database for the South Atlantic has been compiled by combining
magnetic anomaly, Geosat altimetry and onshore geologic data. We used this database to …

The tectonics, geography and climate of the Cretaceous world were very different from the
modern world. At the start of the Cretaceous, the supercontinent of Pangaea had just begun …

A complete circum-Antarctic seaway did not open until both the South Tasman Rise cleared
the Oates Land coast of East Antarctica and Drake Passage opened between the southern …

The existing data on Late Mesozoic and Cenozoic seafloor spreading isochrons (reviewed
in the companion paper by Veevers & Li) and fracture zone trends provide the basis for 12 …

Forty-six miniature plate tectonic reconstructions are presented that can be assembled into a
“flipbook” that illustrates the movement of the continents since the Late Precambrian, 750 m …

Gondwana, with East Antarctica as its center, began to fragment during Late Triassic to Early
Jurassic time. With the exception of the Permian or older convergent Pacific margin of the …

We propose a new model for the tectonic evolution of the eastern Indian Ocean from the
Late Cretaceous to the present. Two types of data are used to improve previously published …

We present a global community data set of fracture zones (FZs), discordant zones,
propagating ridges, V‐shaped structures and extinct ridges, digitized from vertical gravity …
