Description

Larger, thicker, stronger continents emerge as Earth cools, closing the period of major crust-formation. The continents grow and stabilize. Shallow, wide continental shelves provide ideal habitats for the growth and preservation of stromatolites. These cosmopolitan communities grow abundantly and luxuriantly along the continental margins.
