The TEX86 paleotemperature proxy
The TEX86 paleothermometer is based upon the distribution of archaeal membrane lipids (“GDGTs”) in marine sediments. GDGTs are ubiquitous, abundant and relatively resistant to degradation; as such, the TEX86 paleothermometer has been used to reconstruct ...

A global database of Holocene paleotemperature records [PDF]
A comprehensive database of paleoclimate records is needed to place recent warming into the longer-term context of natural climate variability. We present a global compilation of quality-controlled, published, temperature-sensitive proxy records ...

Paleotemperature proxies from leaf fossils reinterpreted in light of evolutionary history. [PDF]
Present-day correlations between leaf physiognomic traits (shape and size) and climate are widely used to estimate paleoclimate using fossil floras. For example, leaf-margin analysis estimates paleotemperature using the modern relation of mean annual ...

Reconstructing past climate events relies on the relevant proxies and how they are related. Depending only on such relationships, however, could not be robust because only few proxy observations are usually available at each age.

Permian Large Igneous Provinces and Their Paleoenvironmental Effects
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.

Paleotemperature record of the Middle Devonian Kačák Episode [PDF]
The Middle Devonian Epoch, ~ 393–383 million years ago, is known for a peak in diversity and highest latitudinal distribution of coral and stromatoporoid reefs.

Replicability of paleotemperature records in the northern Okinawa Trough and its implications for paleoceanographic reconstructions [PDF]
Geochemical proxies are frequently utilized in the reconstruction of past ocean temperatures. Due to resource constraints, these reconstructions typically rely on a single sediment core, raising questions about the local and regional representativeness ...

Paleotemperature models of the Phanerozoic foci of hydrocarbon generation for wells belonging to the Severo-Kalinov and Kalinov fields in Tomsk region [PDF]
This paper suggests a new method of coupled paleotemperature modelling of the Nyurol Paleozoic basin and the blanketing younger Mesozoic-Cenozoic basin. Modelling show that under the geological and geophysical circumstances of the Severo-Kalinov and the ...

Signals of Paleotemperature in the Age Structure and Seasonal Distribution of Pollination Syndromes Across a Temperate Region. [PDF]
Species with wind & insect pollination syndromes show distinct age structure patterns. Splitting insect pollination into different categories show constrasting age structure. Modern flowering seasons track paleotemperature signatures. ABSTRACT Across the planet, angiosperm diversification has been shaped by palaeoclimates and biotic interactions ...

Clumped-isotope-derived climate trends leading up to the end-Cretaceous mass extinction in northwestern Europe [PDF]
Paleotemperature reconstructions of the end-Cretaceous interval document local and global climate trends, some driven by greenhouse gas emissions from Deccan Traps volcanism and associated feedbacks.
