Beneath the frozen surface, the giant tectonic platesare continuing their perpetual movement. SOREGHAN:Over the 60 million yearsor so of the Carboniferous, plate tectonicshad been creating a new supercontinent. They were zippering together, essentially along the Equator,and moving northward.

Beneath the frozen surface
00:00:03.434 --> 00:00:05.008
the giant tectonic plates are continuing
00:00:05.008 --> 00:00:08.367
their perpetual movement
00:00:10.534 --> 00:00:14.007
SOREGHAN Over the 60 million years or so of the Carboniferous
00:00:14.007 --> 00:00:17.003
plate tectonics had been creating
00:00:17.003 --> 00:00:19.009
a new supercontinent
00:00:19.009 --> 00:00:21.367
They were zippering together
00:00:21.367 --> 00:00:25.334
essentially along the Equator and moving northward
00:00:25.334 --> 00:00:27.003
Mountains were being formed
00:00:27.003 --> 00:00:29.634
new weather patterns were being altered
00:00:29.634 --> 00:00:31.567
and adjusted as a result
00:00:31.567 --> 00:00:34.534
of this change in the landmass on Earth
