This is the home page of Dr. Duncan Macgregor and of the Online Paleotectonics and Paleogeography of Africa Atlas project. This site is now devoted to maps I am working on covering the
paleotectonic and paleogeographic history of Africa since the Permian. The aim of this work, together with my colleague Colin Reeves, is to provide a free product on the regional geology of the African plate, from which African workers can understand the regional context of their more specific and local studies. For a YouTube video of this work please click https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YoNYyLGlxjA.
Maps are split into several themes:
Heat Flow and Geothermal Maps of Africa
Cretaceous Tectonic Maps of Africa
Climate, Topography and Drainage Maps of Africa
All maps are fixed on the Present Day position of the African continent, with all other plates and palaeolatitudes belts moving relative to Africa. For paleolatitude lines, from base Cret onwards, see the climate maps. The maps will continue to be developed through time, sources will be referenced (ongoing), and they will eventually be transferred onto www.africangeologicalatlas.com
