Reconstructions of the Caribbean at various times in the geologic past (past 200 million years)

Article introducing a model for the evolution of the Colorado River and the origin of the Grand Canyon.

Paleogeography "movies" of the southwestern United States and the western hemisphere based upon maps made at Northern Arizona by Ron Blakely.

The goal of GAIM is to advance the study of the coupled dynamics of the Earth system using as tools both data and models.

A series of plate-tectonic reconstructions to show the broad patterns of Phanerozoic Earth history.

Research into the paleoclimatology of the Himalayan mountains, focused on understanding changes in the Indian and Plateau monsoons over the past 2000 years, 20,000 years, and beyond.

Offers images of time slices of different ages of the Earth.

Paleoclimate data, research, and education.

Database includes paleontological, lithostratigraphic, chemical, physical, sedimentological, and geophysical data for ocean sediments and hard rocks.

Ocean Drilling Stratigraphic Network (ODNS) interactive tool to calculate platetectonic reconstructions of any age back to 150 My.

International Geosphere-Biosphere Program (IGBP) on paleoclimatology.

Coordinates and encourages the systematic study of atmospheric general circulation models (AGCMs) and to assess their ability to simulate large changes of climate such as those that occurred in the distant past.

Introduction to the field by Jonathan T. Overpeck. Provided by the American Geophysical Union.

Links to publications, software, and data pertinent to paleoclimate research.

Maps showing period-by-period reconstructions of the paleogeography of Southwest United States.

Virtual reality reconstructions illustrating the plate tectonic development of the ocean basins and continents, as well as the changing distribution of land and sea during the past 1100 million years.

Announcement and description of an international workshop on a climatic, biotic, and tectonic transect, pole-to-pole, across the early Mesozoic supercontinent, June 1999. Updated regularly.

Student exercise from Karen L. Bice of Pennsylvania State University.

Data access and software for computing plate tectonic, paleomagnetism, marine gravity anomalies provided by the Istituto Tecnico Industriale E. Molinari, Milan.

Marine sediment core data, in particular oxygen and carbon isotope data, from a variety of different locations.

Global paleogeography and paleoclimates, with emphasis on the Permian and Jurassic. Climate-sensitive sediment and fossil plant distributions are shown on detailed paleogeographic maps, enabling determinations of global paleoclimate patterns.
