摘要
When South America, Africa and Australia are placed in their pre-drift relative positions a common polar wandering curve can be constructed through their upper Carboniferous and Lower and Upper Permian poles. The Triassic poles for South America and Africa are coincident but the position of that for Australia is significantly different. Maps have been drawn showing the latitudes of these three continents during this interval of time. © 1969.
