I thought it was established that mountains follow a cycle of being born, then being eroded back into the ocean, and that life thrives through this 'release' of minerals extracted from the core
I wanted to know from the article where this 'super range' was actually located, and to see an old map (preferably animated) which co-incides with the current evidence left behind. It's fascinating learning how the current make up of the Earth is carved throughout billions of years of processes.
In an age where AI can do so much, it's so sad that quality is not improving. An apparent salaried writer with 7 years experience, backed by a company with nearly a billion in revenue, and this is the end game :/
Thanks :) Love reading how the far far past influences what we see today. Trying to build a mental map of how endogenic systems of the planet create the field on which exogenic systems play on.
Your link's led me to the Warren Bioregion in SW Australia, and to what extent its geological/bioregional sibling to parts of South Africa.
What an incredibly frustrating article.

The Transgodwanan Supermountains were formed by the East African Orogeny and are depicted on the blue part of the diagram on this Wikipedia page

To be pedantic, the article referred to the Nuna Supercontinent[0] as the main one and the 2nd being in the reply above..
These details were hidden in the linked paper (which is mostly hidden behind a paywall).
