Many worlds of April. Saga of the Jurassic. The Evolution of Jurassic Earth

The Pangaea super-continent began to split into two during the mid-Triassic and this trend continued during the Jurassic Period. As the continents moved away from each other, the oceans began to exert more influence on Earth’s weather and the climate became far more varied.
Vegetation was becoming more sophisticated too. Palm-like plants and conifers flourished. Some experts also believe that the first flowering plants developed at the end of the Jurassic.
