Cenozoic paleogeography (animation)
Global paleogeography with zoomed in figures showing the evolution of oceanic gateways active during the Cenozoic time.
Plate tectonics is explained clearly in this collection of accurate, accessible science graphics, designed to make teaching and learning about the Earth’s moving plates engaging and easy. Covering processes such as continental drift, seafloor spreading, and subduction, these visuals show how tectonic plates interact to form mountains, trigger earthquakes, and fuel volcanic activity. Perfect for educators, students, and geology enthusiasts, this plate tectonics graphic collection brings one of Earth science’s most important concepts to life with high-quality, visually rich resources.

Earth’s reconstructed global surface topography from the beginning of the Cenozoic era (66 Million years ago) until today.
Animations of the Earth’s global surface topography reconstructed through the Cenozoic time (66 - 0 Ma).
Simplified model of the Earth’s interior and its global dynamics featuring a solid inner and a fluid outer core, a viscous partially molten but not fluid mantle, and characteristic surface topography.
Comparison of suggested mantle convection in the Earth (mobile-lid mode) and Venus (inefficient short slab mode).
An artistic version of the geologic time scale that is, for flexible use, provided with variable content.
