Every Supercontinent forms in a 'Tectonic Pause' with a global ice age. Massive ice sheets covers whole or part of the Supercontinent. Supercontinental breakup creates the new plates with a severe global warming and rapidly melts the ice sheets, exiting the global ice age period. Breakup and joining of the plates in between two Supercontinental periods causes small scale global warming and ice ages. Mass extinction occurs in the ice age and global warming periods.
Evolution takes place in the post global warming period.
Life thrives in the steady moving of the plates or in the period of oceanic plate subduction. Nevertheless, it is written at a the explanations are based on old, well-established scientific principles. All rights reserved.
