Mid-Piacensian mean annual sea surface temperature: an analysis for data-model comparisons Mid-Piacensian mean annual sea surface temperature: an analysis for data-model comparisons
Numerical models of the global climate system are the primary tools used to understand and project climate disruptions in the form of future global warming. The Pliocene has been identified as the closest, albeit imperfect, analog to climate conditions expected for the end of this century, making an independent data set of Pliocene conditions necessary for ground truthing model results...

New quantitative evidence of extreme warmth in the Pliocene Arctic New quantitative evidence of extreme warmth in the Pliocene Arctic
The most recent geologic interval characterized by warm temperatures similar to those projected for the end of this century occurred about 3.3 to 3.0 Ma, during the mid-Piacenzian Age of the Pliocene Epoch. Climate reconstructions of this warm period are integral to both understanding past warm climate equilibria and to predicting responses to today's transient climate. The Arctic Ocean...

Mid-Pliocene equatorial Pacific sea surface temperature reconstruction: a multi-proxy perspective Mid-Pliocene equatorial Pacific sea surface temperature reconstruction: a multi-proxy perspective
The Mid-Pliocene is the most recent interval of sustained global warmth, which can be used to examine conditions predicted for the near future. An accurate spatial representation of the low-latitude Mid-Pliocene Pacific surface ocean is necessary to understand past climate change in the light of forecasts of future change. Mid-Pliocene sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies show a...

Surface temperatures of the Mid-Pliocene North Atlantic Ocean: Implications for future climate Surface temperatures of the Mid-Pliocene North Atlantic Ocean: Implications for future climate
The Mid-Pliocene is the most recent interval in the Earth's history to have experienced warming of the magnitude predicted for the second half of the twenty-first century and is, therefore, a possible analogue for future climate conditions. With continents basically in their current positions and atmospheric CO2 similar to early twenty-first century values, the cause of Mid-Pliocene...

Reevaluation of mid-Pliocene North Atlantic sea surface temperatures Reevaluation of mid-Pliocene North Atlantic sea surface temperatures
Multiproxy temperature estimation requires careful attention to biological, chemical, physical, temporal, and calibration differences of each proxy and paleothermometry method. We evaluated mid-Pliocene sea surface temperature (SST) estimates from multiple proxies at Deep Sea Drilling Project Holes 552A, 609B, 607, and 606, transecting the North Atlantic Drift. SST estimates derived from...
