Figure 16. Paleogeographic reconstruction of Pindell et al. (1988) with Leg 165 sites (stars) over a paleogeographic grid. The longitudes of the grid are based on the relative position of North America in the hot-spot reference frame using the reconstruction parameters of Müller et al. (1993). Latitudes of the grid are selected to be consistent with the Caribbean paleomagnetic data, North American paleomagnetic data, and the hot-spot reconstructions.
