Pangea breakup and northward drift of the Indian subcontinent reproduced by a numerical model of mantle convection
Since around 200 Ma, the most notable event in the process of the breakup of Pangea has been the high speed (up to 20 cm yr(−1)) of the northward drift of the Indian subcontinent. Our numerical simulations of 3-D spherical mantle convection approximately reproduced the process of continental drift f...
