Science Versus Myth

What if earth stopped spinning ?

Let's get our admittedly far-fetched assumptions on the table. First lets assume the Earth stopped spinning gradually, as a sudden declaration would mean disaster. Second, we'll suppose that earth's ecosystem have survived the transition mostly intact. So what does this new world look like ??

The Earth

The Centrifugal force causes the planet to bulge along the equator. No Rotation, no bulge. Without that bulge, all of the extra water held in place along the equator would go rushing back toward the poles. The world's land and oceans after its equatorial bulge subsided and found that would have a band of land -- one giant super continent -- that circles the equator and separates two massive oceans only to north and the south.
