The Piacenzian stage of the Pliocene (2.6 to 3.6 Ma) is the most recent past interval of sustained global warmth with mean global temperatures markedly higher (by~ 2–3 C) than …
Earth's climate cooled markedly during the late Miocene from 12 to 5 million years ago, with far-reaching consequences for global ecosystems. However, the driving forces of these …

Abstract The Pliocene Model Intercomparison Project (PlioMIP) was initiated in 2008. Over two phases PlioMIP has helped co-ordinate the experimental design and publication …

Here we present the experimental design and results from a new mid-Pliocene simulation using the latest version of the UK's physical climate model, HadGEM3-GC31-LL, conducted …

The'Greening'and subsequent desertification of the Sahara during the early to mid-Holocene is a dramatic example of natural climate change. We analyse a suite of simulations with a …
Constraining the relationship between temperature and atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide (p CO2) is essential to model near-future climate. Here, we reconstruct p …
The mid-Pliocene warm period (~ 3.3–3 million years ago) sustained similar atmospheric CO 2 concentrations to today, and is thus considered one of the best recent paleoclimate …

Reconciling palaeodata with model simulations of the Pliocene climate is essential for understanding a world with atmospheric CO 2 concentration near 400 ppmv (parts per …
The field of sclerochronology has long been known to paleobiologists. Yet, despite the central role of growth rate, age, and body size in questions related to macroevolution and …
