Global Paleogeographic
The globes presented in this series show how Earth may have appeared over the last 600 million years (Ma). Topography was "cloned" from digital elevation maps of modern Earth from the USGS. Colors were adjusted to portray climate and vegetation for the given time and location. The modern Earth was also drawn in this manner using a color pallet derived from satellite images created by ARC Science of Loveland, Colorado.
