• El Nino's tropical climate and teleconnections as a blueprint for pre-Ice Age climates (2002, background): “A virtually permanent El Niño-like state appears to have characterized pre-Ice Age climates, suggesting that transport of heat by the atmosphere was the principal mechanism that maintained extratropical warmth.”
• Impacts of climate change on marine organisms and ecosystems. (2009, background): “Temperatures fell after the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum perhaps because of prolific growth of marine Azolla ferns [35], which reduced atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations dramatically from 3500 ppm to 650 ppm [36], switching Earth from ‘greenhouse’ to ‘icehouse’.”
• EFFECTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON GLOBAL SEAWEED COMMUNITIES (2012, background): “…(e.g., Breeman 1988) clearly indicates that adaptation is possible, and there is evidence to suggest that seaweeds can evolve and even speciate fairly rapidly (in ~400 years in the case of Fucus radicans) when sufficient selective pressure is applied by the environment (Pereyra et al. 2009).”
• A high‐latitude convective cloud feedback and equable climates (2008, background): “KEY WORDS cloud radiative forcing; Cretaceous; Eocene; Paleogene Received 10 October 2007; Revised 19 December 2007; Accepted 19 December 2007”
• Rising atmospheric carbon dioxide: plants FACE the future. (2004, background): “Today’s crops and natural vegetation are growing at an elevated [CO 2] level that has not been experienced by terrestrial vegetation for 26 million years (164).”
• Early Larval Development of the Sydney Rock Oyster Saccostrea glomerata Under Near-Future Predictions of CO2-Driven Ocean Acidification (2009, background): “Over the last 23 million years, atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations have remained stable between 140 to 340 ppm and surface ocean pH has remained constant between 8.0 to 8.3 pH units (Pearson & Palmer 2000).”
