In friday’s palaeo seminar @bristolpalaeo.bsky.social we were treated to Microfossil evolution and morphological change through warm and cold climates by the amazing @bridgetwade.bsky.social

The data is in. 2024 was the warmest year on record, and probably in the whole of human history – about 1.6°C warmer than the pre-industrial period. More than 1 billion individual thermometer measurements have been condensed into a single vital number. theconversation.com/my-new-dark-...

The North Pacific subtropical gyre was not the same in the past. Modelling studies suggest it expanded further north in the warm early Eocene. Get free access to Zhang et al. for the next 50 days (until February 27, 2025) authors.elsevier.com/c/1kPH073N~E... #DeepMIP
