Part II. Paleogeography

Narrated by William Szary

The show can be stopped at any time by right clickingon the slide. A menu appears with options topause, and resume. To return to any slide as the videoadvances, pick the slide number from the menu listunder that item.

When the video begins, clicking on the slide with theMouse can control the presentation instead.

Slide 2

Each part addresses plate tectonics in greater detail. The followingsections were formatted as separate video presentations:

Part I. Plate Tectonics Theory

Presents tectonic theory using a set of models extracted fromNational Geographic Society maps, and from USGS plate tectonicmodels.

Part II. Paleogeography.

Presents global tectonic history through the use of paleogeographicmodels produced by C. Scotese, as part of the USGS fundedPaleoMap Project.

Part III. Global Tectonic Evolution.

Presents global tectonic evolution through public domain ocean basinmaps, and basin tectonic maps published in technical papers. Part III issubdivided into sections.

3

This presentation addresses paleogeographicreconstructions which present the shifting ofcontinents around the globe, beginning withthe Precambrian Era, leading up into theCenozoic Era.
