The supercontinent cycle
Supercontinents signify self-organization in plate tectonics. Over the past~ 2 billion years,
three major supercontinents have been identified, with increasing age: Pangaea, Rodinia …

A template for an improved rock-based subdivision of the pre-Cryogenian timescale
The geological timescale before 720 Ma uses rounded absolute ages rather than specific
events recorded in rocks to subdivide time. This has led increasingly to mismatches between …

Multiple P–T–d–t paths reveal the evolution of the final Nuna assembly in northeast Australia
The final assembly of the Mesoproterozoic supercontinent Nuna was marked by the collision
