A pan-cheloniid turtle from the Middle Miocene of Portugal. [PDF]
Anat Rec (Hoboken)AbstractCurrently, there is no information on the fossil record of Pan‐Cheloniidae from the Neogene of the Iberian Peninsula. A well‐preserved partial skeleton attributable to this lineage of turtles, from the Middle Miocene of Portugal, is presented here.

Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 1-26., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Decrease in coccolithophore calcification and CO2 since the middle Miocene. [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2016 AbstractMarine algae are instrumental in carbon cycling and atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) regulation. One group, coccolithophores, uses carbon to photosynthesize and to calcify, covering their cells with chalk platelets (coccoliths). How ocean acidification influences coccolithophore calcification is strongly debated, and the effects of carbonate ...

Simulation of the Middle Miocene Climate Optimum [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2009 Proxy data constraining land and ocean surface paleo‐temperatures indicate that the Middle Miocene Climate Optimum (MMCO), a global warming event at ∼15 Ma, had a global annual mean surface temperature of 18.4°C, about 3°C higher than present and equivalent to the warming predicted for the next century.
