Resolving the relationships of Paleocene placental mammals.
Biological reviews of the Cambridge Philosophical Society, 2015 The 'Age of Mammals' began in the Paleocene epoch, the 10 million year interval immediately following the Cretaceous-Palaeogene mass extinction. The apparently rapid shift in mammalian ecomorphs from small, largely insectivorous forms to many small-to-large-bodied, diverse taxa has driven a hypothesis that the end-Cretaceous heralded an adaptive ...

Substantial continental temperature rise over the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum in the Pyrenees
Communications Earth & EnvironmentThe Eocene period experienced several hyperthermal events with the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum being the most significant. During this event, global mean surface temperatures were 5–6 °C higher and latitudinal temperature gradients were reduced ...
