Two new animations of continental movements are approaching completeness. South
Atlantic Ocean
The first of these is an animation of the development of the South Atlantic
Ocean to accompany an invited paper in the Journal of African Earth
Sciences. The animation may be viewed and downloaded here but is subject to revision
during the review process.
Bouvet Mantle Plume
The second animation attempts to describe dynamically the evolution of the ocean
around southern Africa as a result of the activity of the Bouvet mantle plume.
A provisional animation is available at the link
here.
