Warm pool ocean heat content regulates ocean–continent moisture transport
Abstract The Indo-Pacific Warm Pool (IPWP) exerts a dominant role in global climate by
releasing huge amounts of water vapour and latent heat to the atmosphere and modulating …

Synchronous tropical and polar temperature evolution in the Eocene
Palaeoclimate reconstructions of periods with warm climates and high atmospheric CO2
concentrations are crucial for developing better projections of future climate change. Deep …

Arctic sea-ice decline weakens the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation
F Sévellec, AV Fedorov, W Liu - Nature Climate Change, 2017 - nature.com
The ongoing decline of Arctic sea ice exposes the ocean to anomalous surface heat and
freshwater fluxes, resulting in positive buoyancy anomalies that can affect ocean circulation …

Atmospheric CO2 control of spontaneous millennial-scale ice age climate oscillations
Last Glacial millennial-scale climate variability transitioned through distinct cold stadial and
warm interstadial states. Here we use Earth system model simulations to demonstrate that …

Patterns and mechanisms of early Pliocene warmth
About five to four million years ago, in the early Pliocene epoch, Earth had a warm,
temperate climate. The gradual cooling that followed led to the establishment of modern …

Aridification of the Sahara desert caused by Tethys Sea shrinkage during the Late Miocene
It is widely believed that the Sahara desert is no more than∼ 2–3 million years (Myr) old,
with geological evidence showing a remarkable aridification of north Africa at the onset of …

Simulating miocene warmth: insights from an opportunistic multi‐model ensemble (MioMIP1)
Abstract The Miocene epoch, spanning 23.03–5.33 Ma, was a dynamic climate of sustained,
polar amplified warmth. Miocene atmospheric CO2 concentrations are typically …
