Atmospheric CO2 over the Past 66 Million Years from Marine Archives
Throughout Earth's history, CO2 is thought to have exerted a fundamental control on
environmental change. Here we review and revise CO2 reconstructions from boron isotopes …

Asian monsoons in a late Eocene greenhouse world
The strong present-day Asian monsoons are thought to have originated between 25 and 22
million years (Myr) ago, driven by Tibetan–Himalayan uplift. However, the existence of older …
