The Cretaceous world: plate tectonics, palaeogeography and palaeoclimate
The tectonics, geography and climate of the Cretaceous world were very different from the

The latitudinal temperature gradient and its climate dependence as inferred from foraminiferal δ18O over the past 95 million years
The latitudinal temperature gradient is a fundamental state parameter of the climate system
tied to the dynamics of heat transport and radiative transfer. Thus, it is a primary target for …

Effects of paleogeographic changes and CO2 variability on northern mid-latitudinal temperature gradients in the Cretaceous
Abstract The Cretaceous 'greenhouse'period (~ 145 to~ 66 million years ago, Ma) in Earth's
history is relatively well documented by multiple paleoproxy records, which indicate that the …

Enhanced ocean connectivity and volcanism instigated global onset of Cretaceous Oceanic Anoxic Event 2 (OAE2)∼ 94.5 million years ago
Abstract Oceanic Anoxic Event 2 (OAE2) exemplifies an episode of global oceanographic
