Paleogeography and Paleoclimatology |
|
Maps showing period-by-period reconstructions of the paleogeography of Southwest United States.
Coordinates and encourages the systematic study of atmospheric general circulation models (AGCMs) and to assess their ability to simulate large changes of climate such as those that occurred in the distant past.
Virtual reality reconstructions illustrating the plate tectonic development of the ocean basins and continents, as well as the changing distribution of land and sea during the past 1100 million years.
Ocean Drilling Stratigraphic Network (ODNS) interactive tool to calculate platetectonic reconstructions of any age back to 150 My.
Paleogeography "movies" of the southwestern United States and the western hemisphere based upon maps made at Northern Arizona by Ron Blakely.
Paleoclimate data, applied research, and education. Features an interface to the World Data Center for paleoclimatology, offering access to original scientific data.
Student exercise from Karen L. Bice of Pennsylvania State University.
Reconstructions of the Caribbean at various times in the geologic past (past 200 million years)
A series of plate-tectonic reconstructions to show the broad patterns of Phanerozoic Earth history.
Database includes paleontological, lithostratigraphic, chemical, physical, sedimentological, and geophysical data for ocean sediments and hard rocks.
