Regional climate shifts caused by gradual global cooling in the Pliocene epoch.

TL;DR: Climate records from high latitudes, subtropical regions and the tropics are compared, indicating that the onset of large glacial/interglacial cycles did not coincide with a specific climate reorganization event at lower latitudes and suggesting that mean low-latitude climate conditions can significantly influence global climate feedbacks.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Cenozoic record of the equatorial Pacific carbonate compensation depth

Heiko Pälike, +70 more
- 30 Aug 2012 - 
TL;DR: A carbonate accumulation record that covers the past 53 million years from a depth transect in the equatorial Pacific Ocean is presented and large superimposed fluctuations in carbonate compensation depth are found during the middle and late Eocene.
Journal ArticleDOI

Collapse of the California Current During Glacial Maxima Linked to Climate Change on Land

TL;DR: Both the timing and magnitude of the SST estimates suggest that the Devils Hole (Nevada) calcite record represents regional but not global paleotemperatures, and hence does not pose a fundamental challenge to the orbital (“Milankovitch”) theory of the Ice Ages.
