...Our views of Cretaceous climates have changed during the last decades, from a warm, equable Cretaceous greenhouse to a Cretaceous that is subdivided into 3–4 longer-term climate states: a cooler Early Cretaceous greenhouse with the possibility of “cold snaps”, a very warm greenhouse mid-Cretaceous ("Supergreenhouse") including short-lived ‘hothouse’ periods with widespread anoxia and a possible reversal of the thermohaline circulation (HEATT episodes of ‘haline euxinic acidic thermal transgression’, see Kidder and Worsley, 2010; Hay and Floegel, 2012), and a Late Cretaceous warm to cool greenhouse evolution (e.g. Skelton, 2003; Kidder and Worsley, 2010, 2012; Föllmi, 2012; Hay and Floegel, 2012; Hu et al., 2012)....

...Although major progress in Cretaceous (145– 66 Ma) paleoclimate and paleoceanography has been made during the past decade (e.g., Föllmi, 2012), high-latitudinal environmental change has been less studied relative to low- and midlatitude marine and terrestrial environments (e.g., Herman and Spicer,…...

...The early Aptian has been generally seen as a time of warm and humid climate, mainly responsible for accelerated continental weathering, and consequent important nutrient fluxes to the ocean sustaining high productivity (e.g. Leckie et al., 2002; Erba, 2004; Föllmi, 2012)....

...Based on the presence of evaporites, a second-order sea-level lowstand, d18O belemnite data, clay-mineral assemblages and palynological observations, a general evolution towards more arid conditions is observed in the latest Jurassic for the central and northern European area, which continues well into the early Berriasian (Hallam, 1986; Haq et al., 1987; Hallam et al., 1991; Allen, 1998; Abbink et al., 2001; Dera et al., 2011)....
