TL;DR: In this article, two main migration events of thermophilic ectotherms at 20 Ma and 18 Ma in the Lower Miocene are discerned and indicate the beginning of the Miocene Climatic Optimum in Central Europe (42-45°N palaeolatitude) with a lower limit of the mean annual temperature (MAT) of their extant relatives.

TL;DR: This paper constitutes the first attempt at deciphering the mitochondrial and nuclear relationships of Mediterranean leuciscins but also a test of biogeographical hypotheses that could have determined the current distribution of Circum-Mediterranean leucISCins.

TL;DR: This article presented two eight-million year long proxy records of precipitation for Southwest and Central Europe, covering the middle to late Miocene (5.3-13-Ma) at a temporal resolution of about 60kyr and 150kyr, respectively.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an analysis of 206 palaeoprecipitation data from two twelve million year long proxy records of precipitation for Southwest (Calatayud-Teruel basin) and Central Europe (Western and Central Paratethys), spanning the late Early and Middle to Late Miocene (17.8-5.3 Ma) at a temporal resolution of about 80 kyr and 200 kyr, respectively.

TL;DR: Lourens et al. as discussed by the authors performed a detailed integrated stratigraphic study on five sections from the western part of the Bavarian Upper Freshwater Molasse of the North Alpine Foreland Basin (NAFB).
