In the early 1900s, a scientist named Alfred Wegener studied geology and meteorology. He noticed that northwestern Europe, which generally has a cool climate, contained a type of coal deposits that could only be formed in hot, wet climates. He also knew that paleontologists, who study fossil records, had found fossils of similar extinct reptiles in Africa and South America, even though those reptiles would not have been able to swim across the ocean that now separates Africa and South America. 8.
