Trends, rhythms, and aberrations in global climate 65 Ma to present
Since 65 million years ago (Ma), Earth's climate has undergone a significant and complex
evolution, the finer details of which are now coming to light through investigations of deep …

The evidence and implications of polar ice during the Mesozoic
GD Price - Earth-Science Reviews, 1999 - Elsevier
The Mesozoic, perhaps representing the longest period of warmth during Phanerozoic Earth
history, contains in general sparse and frequently equivocal evidence for polar ice. Although …

Arabia–Eurasia collision and the forcing of mid-Cenozoic global cooling
MB Allen, HA Armstrong - Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology …, 2008 - Elsevier
The end of the Eocene greenhouse world was the most dramatic phase in the long-term
