Marked Decline in Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide Concentrations During the Paleogene
- M. Pagani, J. Zachos, K. Freeman, B. Tipple, S. Bohaty
- Geology, Medicine
- Science
- 22 July 2005
The relation between the partial pressure of atmospheric carbon dioxide (pCO2) and Paleogene climate is poorly resolved. We used stable carbon isotopic values of di-unsaturated alkenones extracted… Expand
Sea Level Change Through the Last Glacial Cycle

Miocene evolution of atmospheric carbon dioxide
- M. Pagani, M. Arthur, K. Freeman
- Geology
- 1 June 1999
Changes in pCO2 or ocean circulation are generally invoked to explain warm early Miocene climates and a rapid East Antarctic ice sheet (EAIS) expansion in the middle Miocene. This study reconstructs… Expand
Thresholds for Cenozoic bipolar glaciation
- R. Deconto, D. Pollard, P. Wilson, H. Pälike, C. Lear, M. Pagani
- Geology, Medicine
- Nature
- 2 October 2008
The long-standing view of Earth’s Cenozoic glacial history calls for the first continental-scale glaciation of Antarctica in the earliest Oligocene epoch (∼33.6 million years ago), followed by the… Expand
Subtropical Arctic Ocean temperatures during the Palaeocene/Eocene thermal maximum
- A. Sluijs, S. Schouten, +12 authors K. Moran
- Environmental Science, Medicine
- Nature
- 1 June 2006
The Palaeocene/Eocene thermal maximum, ∼55 million years ago, was a brief period of widespread, extreme climatic warming, that was associated with massive atmospheric greenhouse gas input. Although… Expand
Arctic hydrology during global warming at the Palaeocene/Eocene thermal maximum
- M. Pagani, N. Pedentchouk, +34 authors M. Yamamoto
- Geology, Medicine
- Nature
- 5 October 2006
This corrects the article DOI: 10.1038/nature05043
The Role of Carbon Dioxide During the Onset of Antarctic Glaciation
- M. Pagani, M. Huber, +5 authors R. Deconto
- Geology, Medicine
- Science
- 2 December 2011
Antarctica glaciation began soon after a large decrease in the concentration of atmospheric carbon dioxide around 35 million years ago. Earth’s modern climate, characterized by polar ice sheets and… Expand
Antarctic and Southern Ocean influences on Late Pliocene global cooling
- R. Mckay, T. Naish, +12 authors R. Powell
- Geology, Medicine
- Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences
- 11 April 2012
The influence of Antarctica and the Southern Ocean on Late Pliocene global climate reconstructions has remained ambiguous due to a lack of well-dated Antarctic-proximal, paleoenvironmental records.… Expand
An Ancient Carbon Mystery
- M. Pagani, K. Caldeira, D. Archer, J. Zachos
- Geography
- Science
- 8 December 2006
Sudden global warming 55 million years ago provides evidence for high climate sensitivity to atmospheric CO, but the source of the carbon remains enigmatic.
A 12-Million-Year Temperature History of the Tropical Pacific Ocean
Old Gradients The surface ocean temperature gradient between the warmer Western Equatorial Pacific and the cooler Eastern Equatorial Pacific is smaller during El Niño episodes than during neutral… Expand
