How North America got its shape - Peter J. Haproff
View full lesson: http://ed.ted.com/lessons/how-north-america-got-its-shape-peter-j-haproff
North America didn’t always have its familiar shape, nor its famed mountains, canyons, and plains: all of that was once contained in an unrecognizable mass, buried deep in Rodinia, a huge supercontinent that lay on the face of the Earth. Peter J. Haproff explains how it took millions of years and some incredible plate tectonics to forge the continent we know today.

Plate Tectonic Evolution of North America - Scotese Animation
This animation shows the plate tectonic and paleogeographic evolution of North America from 200 million years ago to the present-day. North America was originally part of thee supercontinent of Pangea. About 200 million years ago, Pangea rifted apart. To the east of North America, the Central Atlantic opened. About 150 million years ago, South America rifted away from North America opening the Gulf of Mexico.

North America | PLATE TECTONICS | Geography | Lithosphere | San Andreas Fault
North America's continental crust started to form 4 billion years ago and then began large-scale motion. The lithosphere, which is the rigid outermost shell of our planet, is broken into tectonic plates. Where the Earth’s plates meet, their relative movement cause earthquakes, volcanic activity, mountain-building, and oceanic trench formation along these plate boundaries or faults. One such boundary is the continental San Andreas Fault that extends roughly 1200 kilometers or 750 miles through California. It forms the tectonic boundary between the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate, and its horizontal motion produces earthquakes and the popular fanciful notion that the California coast will one day be swallowed up by the ocean. Actually, geologic and scientific evidence predict that...

Orogeny Geological Formation of North America: 600 Million Years Ago To Present
Sloss Diagram and Phanerozoic Evolution of North America:
This animation shows the relationship of: (1) the geologic evolution of North America from the latest Precambrian (600 Ma) to the Present (right), and (2) the distribution of the six major stratigraphic sequences in time and space for North America, as defined by Larry Sloss (1963) (left).
On the chart, the vertical axis shows geologic time (from 600 million years (base) to the Present). The horizontal scale is in distance and indicates where sedimentation was occurring on the North American continent. The orientation of the diagram is roughly east (right side) to west (left side). The orange areas in the central part of the chart show where no sediments were deposited (i.e. hiatus). The white area indicates where sediments were ...

How North America Almost Separated Into Two Pieces
It's hard to believe, but did you know North America almost split itself in two? 1.1 billion years ago, the land almost separated into two halves— and had it succeeded, there would now be an ocean where Lake Superior is! Learn all about this crazy separation with Hank in a new episode of SciShow!

North America's continental crust started to form 4 billion years ago and then began large-scale motion. The lithosphere, which is the rigid outermost shell of our planet, is broken into tectonic plates. Where the Earth’s plates meet, their relative movement cause earthquakes, volcanic activity, mountain-building, and oceanic trench formation along these plate boundaries or faults. One such boundary is the continental San Andreas Fault that extends roughly 1200 kilometers or 750 miles through California. It forms the tectonic boundary between the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate, and its horizontal motion produces earthquakes and the popular fanciful notion that the California coast will one day be swallowed up by the ocean. Actually, geologic and scientific evidence predict that, far from falling into the sea, Los Angeles will one day be adjacent to San Francisco.

Sloss Diagram and Phanerozoic Evolution of North America:
This animation shows the relationship of: (1) the geologic evolution of North America from the latest Precambrian (600 Ma) to the Present (right), and (2) the distribution of the six major stratigraphic sequences in time and space for North America, as defined by Larry Sloss (1963) (left).
On the chart, the vertical axis shows geologic time (from 600 million years (base) to the Present). The horizontal scale is in distance and indicates where sedimentation was occurring on the North American continent. The orientation of the diagram is roughly east (right side) to west (left side). The orange areas in the central part of the chart show where no sediments were deposited (i.e. hiatus). The white area indicates where sediments were being deposited (various shades of blue on the map). The purple triangles on the left and right side of the diagram indicate the timing major orogenies (times of mountain building). The horizontal red line indicates the geologic time being shown on the chart and matches the geologic time shown on the map.
The video demonstrates four concepts:
(1) the movement of geologic plates through time;
(2) the movements of the oceans through time,
(3) how North America has been repeatedly below and above sea level during its geologic history,
(4) the distribution of Sloss sequences and how they are related to the paleo-geographic map view.
