Using Pacific benthic foraminiferal δ18O and Mg/Ca records, we derive a Cenozoic (66 Ma)
global mean sea level (GMSL) estimate that records evolution from an ice-free Early Eocene …

Abstract The Miocene epoch (23.03–5.33 Ma) was a time interval of global warmth, relative
to today. Continental configurations and mountain topography transitioned toward modern …

Much of our understanding of Earth's past climate comes from the measurement of oxygen
and carbon isotope variations in deep-sea benthic foraminifera. Yet, long intervals in …

The present paper addresses driving mechanisms of global monsoon (GM) variability and
outstanding issues in GM science. This is the second synthesis of the PAGES GM Working …

The time scale for marine magnetic anomalies for the Late Cretaceous through Neogene (C-
sequence) and Middle Jurassic through Early Cretaceous (M-sequence with deep-tow …

Ocean acidification may have severe consequences for marine ecosystems; however,
assessing its future impact is difficult because laboratory experiments and field observations …

We present here a new solution for the astronomical computation of the orbital motion of the
Earth spanning from 0 to− 250 Myr. The main improvement with respect to our previous …

Planktonic foraminifera are widely utilized for the biostratigraphy of Cretaceous and
Cenozoic marine sediments and are a fundamental component of Cenozoic …

The Geologic Time Scale 2012, winner of a 2012 PROSE Award Honorable Mention for Best
Multi-volume Reference in Science from the Association of American Publishers, is the …

Calcareous nannofossils have provided a powerful biostratigraphic tool since the 1950's
and 1960's, when several milestone papers began to highlight their potential use in dating …
