Abstract: Abstract It is thought that the North China Block collided with Pangea earlier than the closure of the Mianlue Ocean between the South and North China Blocks. Therefore, the closure of the Mianlue Ocean, which… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract The Late Paleozoic Ice Age (LPIA) was the penultimate major glaciation of the Phanerozoic. Published compilations indicate it occurred in two main phases, one centered in the Late Carboniferous (~315 Ma) and the other in… read more here.

Abstract: We show that the peripheral Pangea subduction zone closely followed a polar great circle. We relate it to the band of faster‐than‐average velocities in lowermost mantle. Both structures have an axis of symmetry in the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1098/rsbl.2022.0222
Abstract: Therapsids were widely distributed in Pangea in the late Permian. South Africa in Gondwana and Russia in Laurasia are the principal areas recording tetrapods (including therapsids) of this age. More recent field explorations have increased… read more here.
