What Will Earth’s Next Supercontinent Be?

The video explores the history and future of Earth's supercontinents, focusing on tectonic plate movements and potential future formations like Novopangaea, Pangaea Ultima, Aurica, and Amasia. It discusses the geological processes driving these changes and their potential impact on Earth's climate, emphasizing the importance of understanding these processes for predicting future changes.

How do geologists study the movement of tectonic plates?

Describe the process of divergence in relation to tectonic plates.

What is the predicted supercontinent that may form in about 200 million years?

Explain the concept of Wilson cycles and their significance in plate tectonics.

What is orthoversion and how does it relate to the formation of supercontinents?

What are the potential climate effects of a supercontinent like Amasia?
