The opening and constriction of oceanic gateways played an essential role in shaping the global climate throughout Earth's history. In this review, we provide an overview of the best …
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 …
Ocean gateways facilitate circulation between ocean basins, thereby impacting global climate. The Indonesian Gateway transports water from the Pacific to the Indian Ocean via …

Abstract Although the Leeuwin Current (LC) is thought to play a pivotal role in climatic and oceanic systems of the western Australian region, how the LC developed through the …
An unusually short glaciation interrupted the warm Pliocene around 3.3 Ma (Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) M2). Different hypotheses exist to explain why this glaciation event was so …
Aragonite and high‐Mg calcite are abundant in modern, neritic carbonate systems but almost absent in their fossil counterparts. Dissolution of these metastable mineral phases …
Abstract The Indonesian Throughflow (ITF) operates as an important link in global thermohaline circulation, and ITF variability probably modulated Pliocene climate change …
Abstract The Great Barrier Reef of Australia is the largest modern coral reef system on Earth. However, a similar-sized barrier reef (~ 2000 km long) existed on Australia's north-western …
Inorganic precipitation of aragonite is a common process within tropical carbonate environments. Across the Northwest Shelf of Australia (NWS) such precipitates were …
