Journal ArticleDOI
Global continental and ocean basin reconstructions since 200 Ma
Maria Seton,Ralph Müller,Sabin Zahirovic,Carmen Gaina,Trond H. Torsvik,Grace E. Shephard,A.S. Talsma,Michael Gurnis,M. Turner,Stefan Maus,Michael T. Chandler +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a new type of global plate motion model consisting of a set of continuously-closing topological plate polygons with associated plate boundaries and plate velocities since the break-up of the supercontinent Pangea is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ocean Basin Evolution and Global-Scale Plate Reorganization Events Since Pangea Breakup
R. Dietmar Müller,Maria Seton,Sabin Zahirovic,Simon Williams,Kara J. Matthews,Nicky M. Wright,Grace E. Shephard,Kayla T. Maloney,Nicholas Barnett-Moore,Maral Hosseinpour,Dan J. Bower,John Cannon +11 more
TL;DR: This paper presented a revised global plate motion model with continuously closing plate boundaries ranging from the Triassic at 230 Ma to the present day, assess differences among alternative absolute plate motion models, and review global tectonic events.
Journal ArticleDOI
Global plate boundary evolution and kinematics since the late Paleozoic
Kara J. Matthews,Kayla T. Maloney,Sabin Zahirovic,Simon Williams,Maria Seton,R. Dietmar Müller +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the first continuous late-paleozoic to present-day global plate model with evolving plate boundaries, building on and extending two previously published models for the late Paleozoic and Mesozoic-Cenozoic (230-0-Ma).
Journal ArticleDOI
GPlates: Building a Virtual Earth Through Deep Time
R. Dietmar Müller,John Cannon,Xiaodong Qin,Robin J. Watson,Michael Gurnis,Simon Williams,Tobias Pfaffelmoser,Maria Seton,Samuel H. J. Russell,Sabin Zahirovic +9 more
TL;DR: GPlates as mentioned in this paper is an open-source, cross-platform plate tectonic geographic information system, enabling the interactive manipulation of plate-tectonic reconstructions and the visualization of geodata through geological time.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Global Plate Model Including Lithospheric Deformation Along Major Rifts and Orogens Since the Triassic
R. Dietmar Müller,Sabin Zahirovic,Simon Williams,John Cannon,Maria Seton,Dan J. Bower,Dan J. Bower,Michael G. Tetley,Christian Heine,Christian Heine,Eline Le Breton,Shaofeng Liu,Samuel H. J. Russell,Ting Yang,Ting Yang,Jonathon Leonard,Michael Gurnis +16 more
TL;DR: The authors presented a global Mesozoic-Cenozoic deforming plate motion model that captures the progressive extension of all continental margins since the initiation of rifting within Pangea at ~240 Ma.
