The Polar Pangaea

During the Permian and Triassic periods, all the continents had joined together to become the supercontinent Pangaea. Its size means that the majority of terrestrial life might have been confined to the coasts, away from the large, unforgiving desert, and its pole-to-pole position means that with no exchange from warm water to cold, the oceans were anoxic.

But if all the continents centered around either the North or the South Pole, what would the climate and ocean circulation be like?
