The Pliocene climate is globally warm and characterised by high atmospheric carbon
dioxide concentrations, yet the terrestrial and marine scientific communities have gathered …

The mid-Pleistocene climate transition (MPT) is defined by the emergence of high amplitude,
quasi-100ka glacial–interglacial cycles from a prior regime of more subtle 41kacycles. This …

Abstract We analyse recent Mediterranean Sea surface temperatures (SSTs) and their
response to global change using 1/4-degree gridded advanced very-high-resolution …

About five to four million years ago, in the early Pliocene epoch, Earth had a warm,
temperate climate. The gradual cooling that followed led to the establishment of modern …

Understanding the evolution of Arctic polar climate from the protracted warmth of the middle
Pliocene into the earliest glacial cycles in the Northern Hemisphere has been hindered by …

Deep-time palaeoclimate studies are vitally important for develo** a complete
understanding of climate responses to changes in the atmospheric carbon dioxide …

Tropical cyclones (also known as hurricanes and typhoons) are now believed to be an
important component of the Earth's climate system,,. In particular, by vigorously mixing the …

The onset of abundant ice-rafted debris (IRD) deposition in the Nordic Seas and subpolar
North Atlantic Ocean 2.72 millions of years ago (Ma) is thought to record the Pliocene onset …

During the warm Miocene and Pliocene Epochs, vast subtropical regions had enough
precipitation to support rich vegetation and fauna. Only with global cooling and the onset of …

During the late Pliocene global climate changed drastically as the Northern Hemisphere
glaciation (NHG) intensified. It remains poorly understood how the North Atlantic Current …
