Re: No Mesozoic rainforests?

Briefly:,

anyone interested in the tropical climate thing might
be interested in:
http://jisao.washington.edu/JISAO_admin/newsarchives/naturegeoscience_12-05-07_WideningOfTheTropicalBeltInAChangingClimate.pdf

The first 1 1/2 pages will give you an overview of the
key points; most relevant to the issue at hand are the
paragraphs from "This precipitation pattern..." to
"...can serve to identify a distinctly tropical
region".

(They cannot identify anything in the Mesozoic of
course, but it makes it easy to understand how, where
and why tropical climates are "made". On a global
scale of course; on a local scale topography is the
key)
