David A.; Pälike, Heiko; Pancost, Richard D.; Pearson, Paul N.; Röhl, Ursula; Royer, Dana L.; Salzmann, Ulrich; Schubert, Brian A.; Seebeck, Hannu; Sluijs, Appy; Speijer, Robert P.; Stassen, Peter; Tierney, Jessica; Tripati, Aradhna; Wade, Bridget; Westerhold, Thomas; Witkowski, Caitlyn; Zachos, James C.; Zhang, Yi Ge; Huber, Matthew; Lunt, Daniel J. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-07-25)
      The early Eocene (56 to 48 million years ago) is inferred to have been the most recent time that Earth's atmospheric CO2 concentrations exceeded 1000 ppm. Global mean temperatures were also substantially warmer than those ...
    • The Miocene: The Future of the Past 

      Steinthorsdottir, Margret; Coxall, Helen; De Boer, Agatha; Huber, Matthew; Barbolini, Natasha; Bradshaw, C.; Burls, N.; Feakins, Sarah; Gasson, E; Henderiks, Jorijntje; Holbourn, Ann E; Kiel, Steffen; Kohn, M; Knorr, Gregor; Kürschner, Wolfram Michael; Lear, Caroline H.; Liebrand, Diederik; Lunt, Daniel J; Mörs, Thomas; Pearson, Paul; Pound, Matthew J.; Stoll, Heather; Stromberg, C (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      The Miocene epoch (23.03–5.33 Ma) was a time interval of global warmth, relative to today. Continental configurations and mountain topography transitioned toward modern conditions, and many flora and fauna evolved into the ...
    • Sequential extraction procedure to obtain the composition of terrigenous detritus in marine sediments 

      Simon, Margit Hildegard; Babin, Daniel P.; Goldstein, Steven L.; Cai, Merry Yue; Liu, Tanzhuo; Han, Xibin; Haws, Anne A.; Johns, Matthew; Lear, Caroline H.; Hemming, Sidney R. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      The geochemical and isotopic composition of terrigenous clays from marine sediments can provide important information on the sources and pathways of sediments. In order to extract the detrital signal from bulk marine ...
    • Warm Middle Miocene Indian Ocean Bottom Water Temperatures: Comparison of Clumped Isotope and Mg/Ca‐Based Estimates 

      Modestou, Sevasti Eleni; Leutert, Thomas Jan; Bremer, Alvaro Fernandez; Lear, Caroline H.; Meckler, Anna Nele (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      The middle Miocene is an important analogue for potential future warm climates. However, few independent deep ocean temperature records exist, though these are important for climate model validation and estimates of changes ...
