(bought or sold) The position of the continents determines the geometry of the oceans and therefore influences patterns of ocean circulation The locations of the seas are important in controlling the transfer of heat and moisture across the globe and therefore in determining global climate A recent example of tectonic control on ocean circulation is the formation of the Isthmus of Panama about 5 million years ago which shut off direct mixing between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans This strongly affected the ocean dynamics of what is now the Gulf Stream and may have led to Northern Hemisphere ice cover. During the Carboniferous period about 300 to 360 million years ago plate tectonics may have triggered large-scale storage of carbon and increased glaciation. Geologic evidence points to a "megamonsoonal" circulation pattern during the time of the supercontinent Pangaea and climate modeling suggests that the existence of the supercontinent was conducive to the establishment of monsoons. .
