This paper examines the distribution of 91 modern dinoflagellate cyst taxa from 3636
locations across the world's oceans. Patterns of distributions among the taxa included bi …

Observations and model experiments highlight the importance of ocean heat in forcing ice
sheet retreat during the present and geological past, but past ocean temperature data are …

The Pliocene Epoch, 5.33–2.58 million years ago (Ma), was a generally warmer and wetter
interval with atmospheric CO2-concentrations at or slightly above modern levels. This paper …

This Special Report comprehensively describes the stratigraphy and correlation of the
Tertiary (Paleogene–Neogene) rocks of NW Europe and the adjacent Atlantic Ocean and is …

The Pliocene was characterized by a gradual shift of global climate toward cooler and drier
conditions. This shift fundamentally reorganized Earth's climate from the Miocene state …

The early Late Pliocene (3.6 to∼ 3.0 million years ago) is the last extended interval in
Earth's history when atmospheric CO2 concentrations were comparable to today's and …

Abstract Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) Expedition 318 recovered a∼ 170 m
long Holocene organic-rich sedimentary sequence at Site U1357. Located within the narrow …

The globally warm climate of the early Pliocene gradually cooled from 4 million years ago,
synchronous with decreasing atmospheric CO2 concentrations. In contrast …

Microfossils from plankton are used for paleoceanographic reconstructions. An often‐made
assumption in quantitative microplankton‐based paleoceanographic reconstructions is that …

Improvements in our capability to reconstruct ancient surface-ocean conditions based on
organic-walled dinoflagellate cyst (dinocyst) assemblages from the Southern Ocean provide …
