PGAP Activities Permian Jurassic Movies, Slideshows and Maps ... Links THE PALEOGEOGRAPHIC ATLAS PROJECT UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO About the Atlas Project We interpret paleogeography broadly to include all aspects of map reconstruction from paleo-continental orientations and tectonic considerations to the delineation of past topographic or bathymetric contours and the compilation of lithofacies data. In addition we use the reconstructions as base information for studies of past fossil distributions, and for climatic or oceanographic patterns as determined from the fossils, the sediments and from computer modeling studies. Our team has worked since the plate tectonic paradigm was introduced to compile information mainly from the literature on all aspects of global paleogeography. Moreover, we have pioneered the application of computer technology to paleogeographic map-making. click on image to enlarge The Paleogeographic Atlas Project in 2001 PGAP Publications (with links to abstracts) Jurassic slideshow sampler ( QuickTime ... Paleogeographic Maps (downloadable pdf files) Animations Successive paleogeographic maps often look very similar, just because continents move slowly in geologic time, mountains are uplifted gradually and shorelines generally do not advance or retreat significantly when viewed on a world scale. Animations are therefore necessary to bring out these subtle changes, and computer graphics are ideal for this purpose. Animations showing the general flow of the continental blocks through long intervals of geologic time are straightforward because the paleomagnetic information on the latitude and orientation of plates is reasonably well understood. Detailed paleogeographic maps, showing paleo-shorelines, and other paleogeographic contours are more problematic since depicting these accurately on closely spaced time steps is tedious and fraught with uncertainty. Nonetheless we have prepared a number of animations based on our detailed paleogeographic maps, and more are planned.

5. Trilobite Paleogeography Trilobite paleogeography. last revised 14 JULY 2003 by S. M. Gon III. Biogeography involves the mapping and study of the patterns of distribution of organisms within and between the world's regions . http://www.aloha.net/~smgon/trilopaleogeo.htm

Trilobite Paleogeography last revised 14 JULY 2003 by S. M. Gon III Biogeography involves the mapping and study of the patterns of distribution of organisms within and between the world's regions. The biogeography of plants and animals reflects their ecological requirements and the habitat niches they occupy. Some species are widespread, while others are restricted to certain regions of the globe. Paleogeography offers some of the same approach, but must take into account the fact of plate tectonics, and the changing of continental and ocean basin patterns over the course of hundreds of millions of years. The paleogeography of trilobites is particularly important because they were extremely diverse, were distributed all over the globe, and offer much insight on paleoenvironments. Trilobites occupied marine environments from tropical equatorial to polar paleolatitudes. Some families of trilobites were narrow in their requirements. For example, the family Bathyuridae (Proetida:Bathyuroidea) was found only in paleoequatorial regions. Trilobite marine niches ranged from intertidal and nearshore to deep continental slopes. Because there was very significant continental movement during the Paleozoic Era, with continents drifting apart, as well as converging and joining, the distribution and evolution of trilobites over the nearly 300 million years of their existence reflects a complex paleogeography.

Middle Jurassic Paleogeography Paleogeography of the Southwestern US Images from a talk presented to the Annual Meeting of the Geological Society of America, Salt Lake City, Utah, Oct. 1997 Introduction The images presented here show the paleogeography of the SW US from 1.8 billion years ago to 10 million years ago. When played in order, the paleogeographic evolution of the region unfolds. Emphasis is on the Mesozoic where two or more images of each period are shown. Two different interpretations are presented for some of the periods. One shows a tectonic interpretation in which most elements of the western US were derived from North America; the second shows a tectonic interpretation in which some elements originated far from North America (exotic elements). Debate continues concerning these two different tectonic models. Paleogeographic Maps and Globes Text Precambrian Cambrian Ordovician ... Tertiary The images were prepared by placing various stratigraphic, tectonic, and sedimentologic data on a base map, plotting land vs. sea over this data, and then adding more detailed landforms such as mountains, shelf edges, rivers, arc-trench systems, and lowlands. The data was then painted in Photoshop 5.5. Climatic data is also added as tones of browns and reds for arid and greens for humid. The database for the images consists of many papers published on the geology of SW NAM. My own work is incorporated onto the Colorado Plateau portion of the maps. Plate patterns are from PGIS MAC, a plate-tectonic computer program by the Paleomap Project. Major sources of data are listed below:
