    Paleolatitudes of Late Triassic radiolarian cherts from Argolis, Greece: Insights on the paleogeography of the western Tethys by Muttoni, G., Tartarotti, P., Chiari, M., Marieni, C., Rodelli, D., Dallanave, E., Kirscher, Uwe

    Published 2015
    “…The derived mean direction was corrected for sedimentary inclination shallowing and yielded a paleolatitude of ~ 22°N that was placed in a broader paleogeographic context by reconstructing Pangea at ~ 225 ± 5 Ma using a recent apparent polar wander path corrected for sedimentary inclination shallowing.The Late Triassic paleogeography of the Tethys Ocean was constrained using additional paleolatitude estimates from the literature, which we checked and corrected (when possible) for sedimentary inclination shallowing. …”

    Photic Zone Euxinia and Microbial Mat Development in the Early Triassic of the Perth Basin, Western Australia: Implications for Petroleum Systems by Taniwaki, Takashi

    Published 2021
    “…Reconstruction of basin-scale paleogeography and paleoenvironments in the northern Perth Basin during the Early Triassic, utilising integrated geological and organic geochemical analyses, shows the distribution of photic zone euxinia and microbial mats following the end-Permian mass extinction. …”

    Assembly and Breakup of Rodinia(Some Results of IGCP Project 440) by Bogdanova , S., Pisarevsky, S., Li, Zheng-Xiang

    Published 2009
    “…A map of that supercontinent compiled using geological and paleomagnetic data describes global paleogeography 900 Ma ago. The assembly of Rodinia, which comprised most of Precambrian continental blocks, lasted ca. 400 m.y. …”

    An Australian source for Pacific-Gondwanan zircons: Implications for the assembly of northeastern Gondwana by Martin, E., Collins, W., Kirkland, Chris

    Published 2017
    “…This Himalayan-style orogen was responsible for amalgamating Southeast Asian terranes into northeast Gondwana, thereby constraining the paleogeography of the northern Gondwanan margin at the Precambrian-Cambrian boundary. …”

    Rodinian devil in disguise: Correlation of 1.25-1.10 Ga strata between Tasmania and Grand Canyon by Mulder, J., Karlstrom, K., Halpin, J., Merdith, A., Spencer, Christopher, Berry, R., McDonald, B.

    Published 2018
    “…Locating the continuation of the ca. 1.30-1.00 Ga Grenville orogen on continents formerly adjacent to Laurentia is central to resolving the paleogeography of the supercontinent Rodinia. Here we emphasize a correlation of late Mesoproterozoic foreland basins that, prior to truncation by Neoproterozoic rift margins, may have extended west of Laurentia within Rodinia. …”

    Published 2013
    “…The paleogeography of the Altaids and its kinematic and tectonic evolution during the final collision and amalgamation of Eurasia is still poorly known. …”

    Continental flood basalt weathering as a trigger for Neoproterozoic Snowball Earth by Cox, Grant, Halverson, G., Stevenson, R., Vokaty, M., Poirier, A., Kunzmann, M., Li, Zheng-Xiang, Denyszyn, S., Strauss, J., Macdonald, F.

    Published 2016
    “…The unique middle Neoproterozoic paleogeography of a rifting, low-latitude, supercontinent likely favored a globally cool climate due to the influence of the silicate weathering feedback and planetary albedo. …”
