Understanding ancient ocean temperatures—particularly from the Cenozoic era (the past 66 million years), in which Earth experienced dramatic climate shifts—helps scientists reveal more about the ...
For more than 66 million years, Earth has been living through a remarkable chapter of history known as the Cenozoic Era. This enormous stretch of time transformed the planet after the extinction of ...
According to a new study from an international team led by researchers, the oxygen-deficient zones that occur in the open ocean shrank in long warm periods of the past. When oxygen becomes scarce, ...
