Rage Against the Miocene.

For the first time ever, recorded atmospheric CO₂ has exceeded 430ppm! The last time CO₂ consistently reached today’s human-driven levels was ∼14 Million years ago, with shorter periods of similar levels around 3-5 Million years ago.

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...

Nice new paper on Palaeozoic CO2 levels! Low CO2 maintained globally cold climate for 10s of millions of years.

Rapid rise in atmospheric CO2 marked the end of the Late Palaeozoic Ice Age - Nature Geoscience
A pronounced increase in atmospheric CO2 coincided with warming at the end of the Late Palaeozoic Ice Age, according to an 80-million-year-long boron isotope CO2 proxy record.

Other than us (see right panel), what causes the fastest increases in CO₂ and the strangest bumps in CH₄ in the ice core record (see left panel)?
@benryoung.bsky.social's new paper may have the answer and it's literally 🔥.

HOW DO YOU DO, FELLOW PENGUINS!
Thanks to this volunteer penguin, who assisted while the team were maintaining the penguin weighbridge at Bird Island.
They definitely blend right in, the penguins won’t suspect anything 🐧
