Major sea level fall during the Pliocene M2 glaciation - Nature Communications This study refines benthic foraminiferal Mg/Ca paleothermometry to reduce uncertainties to ±0.2-0.3 °C, which was then applied in Atlantic and Pacific sediment cores to reconstruct Mid-Pliocene M2 gla...

New paper! Check out @zifeiyang.bsky.social gorgeous data from M2 glaciation (3.3Ma) - stunning Melonis Mg/Ca temperature records allow us to be confident about ice growth, but this was not like later glaciations following iNHG, we think gateways were more important: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Washed foraminifera being picked for computer tomography and geochemical analysis.

CT models of internal or external growth structures, as well as shell thickness, of individual foraminifera.

Our researchers have conducted a groundbreaking analysis of prehistoric plankton 🔬

They have revealed how these microscopic organisms adapted to their environment not just across generations, but on a day-to-day basis.

Pacific Highs: A Treasure Trove of Past Warm Climate Archives Questions remain on how the Pacific shaped and/or responded to regional and global climate change, including impacts on marine ecosystems Pacific Ocean sediments hold important information about ...

The Pacific Highs remain an under-explored treasure trove of information on past warm climates. Coordinated international efforts are the framework within which these archives can be best explored to address urgent and societally relevant questions regarding future climate change scenarios.
