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 …
