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
Mingsong Li of my alma mater PSU geosciences on the challenges of deep time data integration. #DeepMIP
Looking at ancient warming events through a biotic/ecological lens. New insights from @UOBEarthScience colleague Dani Schmidt at #DeepMIP.
Compilation of (very hot) sea surface temperatures from ~50 million years ago by @david_naafs @ogu_bristol. Preview to showing brand new (also hot) terrestrial temps (just accepted in @NatureGeosci). Common theme at #DeepMIP is that earth system sensitivity is very high.
Sevi Modestou of Bergen (and #Medgate graduate!) presents exciting new calibrations for how clumped isotopes of foraminifera can reconstruct past sea temperatures. #DeepMIP @GeogBristol x.com/rpancost/status/10148330...
Really excited by @Kate_Littler talk at #DeepMIP - lots of hard graft to generate a fantastic high res, multi-species, trace metal dataset from the Indian ocean. Fantastic stuff! @Sci_fOD U1443
At #DeepMIP @vit_lau of @ogu_bristol @cabotinstitute shows new temperature records of cooling across the Eocene- Oligocene transition (the build up the Antarctic ice sheet ~30 million years ago).
Rather heartwarming that a small child just left this in the room at @mshedbristol where we are holding #DeepMIP meeting on past hot climates that could be analogues for the future.
At #DeepMIP @climategordon of @ogu_bristol @cabotinstitute shows new records of terrestrial warming across the #petm. A hot world got hotter - across all archives.
.@EleanorHJohn and @CarolineLear are trying to recover past ocean temperatures from 'frosty' forams on @NERCscience funded SWEET project. #DeepMIP
Alan Kennedy of @GeogBristol @cabotinstitute explores how to better capture uncertainty in past climate simulations. #DeepMIP
Great talk by @Climate_AlexF of @GeogBristol @cabotinstitute at #DeepMIP on important role of Tibetan Plateau in climate reconstruction.
Exciting early results by @charliejrwill exploring climate sensitivity in fully coupled models (HadGEM3 and eventually UKESM1). Potentially important impacts from aerosols. #DeepMIP @cabotinstitute @GeogBristol
Already an emerging theme from #DeepMIP across models (and tomorrow... across proxies). More CO2 causes not just warming but polar amplification of warming. Not a new finding! But important to keep probing. @cabotinstitute @UOBEarthScience @GeogBristol
A bit late to @BristolUni @cabotinstitute #DeepMIP meeting but it's a packed house full of those studying hot climates from the past! Models, proxies and more! @cabotinstitute
