Event stratigraphy is used to help characterise the Anthropocene as a chronostratigraphic concept, based on analogous deep-time events, for which we provide a novel …
Abstract The Palaeocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM) was a global warming event of 5–6° C around 56 million years ago caused by input of carbon into the ocean and …
Glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraether (GDGT) lipids are membrane lipids which were long thought to be synthesized mainly by archaea, organisms thought to be limited to extreme …
Cenozoic temperature, sea level and CO2 covariations provide insights into climate sensitivity to external forcings and sea-level sensitivity to climate change. Climate sensitivity …

During the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM),∼ 56 Mya, thousands of petagrams of carbon were released into the ocean-atmosphere system with attendant …
The early Eocene (56 to 48 million years ago) is inferred to have been the most recent time that Earth's atmospheric CO 2 concentrations exceeded 1000 ppm. Global mean …
Carbon release rates from anthropogenic sources reached a record high of∼ 10 Pg C yr− 1 in 2014. Geologic analogues from past transient climate changes could provide invaluable …
Dissolved oxygen (O2) is essential for most ocean ecosystems, fuelling organisms' respiration and facilitating the cycling of carbon and nutrients. Oxygen measurements have …
