The Apparent Polar Wander Path for South America during the Permian-Triassic

Many of the controversies that arise in global reconstructions for Permian-Triassic time could be resolved by taking into account the large latitudinal and counter-clockwise movement of Gondwana during that interval of time. The proper trace of the apparent polar wander curve should differentiate on...
