Tethys Ocean Evolution

Tethys Ocean Evolution is a geological theory that explains the progressive opening, transformation, and closure of the Tethys Ocean, a now-vanished oceanic domain, through Mesozoic and Cenozoic plate tectonic movements, distinguishing it from other paleooceanographic models by its focus on the dynamic interplay between Gondwana-derived continental fragments and Eurasia.
