Production and preservation of resins–past and present
Amber is fossilised plant resin. It can be used to provide insights into the terrestrial
conditions at the time the original resin was exuded. Amber research thus can inform many …

Flood basalts and mass extinctions
Flood basalts were Earth's largest volcanic episodes that, along with related intrusions, were
often emplaced rapidly and coincided with environmental disruption: oceanic anoxic events …

The deep carbon cycle and melting in Earth's interior
Carbon geochemistry of mantle-derived samples suggests that the fluxes and reservoir sizes
associated with deep cycle are in the order of 1012–13gC/yr and 1022–23g C, respectively …

Large igneous province record through time and implications for secular environmental changes and geological time‐scale boundaries
An emerging consensus suggests that large igneous provinces (LIPs) are a significant driver
of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including several Phanerozoic …

Very large release of mostly volcanic carbon during the Palaeocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum
Abstract The Palaeocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum,(PETM) was a global warming event
that occurred about 56 million years ago, and is commonly thought to have been driven …

Past extreme warming events linked to massive carbon release from thawing permafrost
Abstract Between about 55.5 and 52 million years ago, Earth experienced a series of
sudden and extreme global warming events (hyperthermals) superimposed on a long-term …

Proxy evidence for state-dependence of climate sensitivity in the Eocene greenhouse
Despite recent advances, the link between the evolution of atmospheric CO2 and climate
during the Eocene greenhouse remains uncertain. In particular, modelling studies suggest …

On the duration of the Paleocene‐Eocene thermal maximum (PETM)
The Paleocene‐Eocene thermal maximum (PETM) is one of the best known examples of a
transient climate perturbation, associated with a brief, but intense, interval of global warming …

Tempo and scale of late Paleocene and early Eocene carbon isotope cycles: Implications for the origin of hyperthermals
The upper Paleocene and lower Eocene are marked by several prominent (> 1‰) carbon
isotope (δ13C) excursions (CIE) that coincide with transient global warmings, or thermal …

Paleocene/Eocene carbon feedbacks triggered by volcanic activity
Abstract The Paleocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM) was a period of geologically-
rapid carbon release and global warming~ 56 million years ago. Although modelling …
