The PhanSST global database of Phanerozoic sea surface temperature proxy data (2022)
Journal Article
Judd, E. J., Tierney, J. E., Huber, B. T., Wing, S. L., Lunt, D. J., Ford, H. L., …Zhang, Y. G. (2022). The PhanSST global database of Phanerozoic sea surface temperature proxy data. Scientific Data, 9(1), Article 753. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41597-022-01826-0

Paleotemperature proxy data form the cornerstone of paleoclimate research and are integral to understanding the evolution of the Earth system across the Phanerozoic Eon. Here, we present PhanSST, a database containing over 150,000 data points from fi... Read More about The PhanSST global database of Phanerozoic sea surface temperature proxy data.

Planktonic foraminifera organic carbon isotopes as archives of upper ocean carbon cycling (2022)
Journal Article
Hoogakker, B., Anderson, C., Paoloni, T., Scott, A., Grant, H., Keenan, P., …Peck, V. (2022). Planktonic foraminifera organic carbon isotopes as archives of upper ocean carbon cycling. Nature Communications, 13, Article 4841. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-022-32480-0

The carbon cycle is a key regulator of Earth’s climate. On geological time-scales, our understanding of particulate organic matter (POM), an important upper ocean carbon pool that fuels ecosystems and an integrated part of the carbon cycle, is limite...

Plio-Pleistocene ocean circulation changes in the GOA and its impacts on the carbon and nitrogen cycles and the CIS development (2022)
Journal Article
Sánchez Montes, M., Romero, O., Cowan, A., Müller, J., Moy, C., LLoyd, J., & McClymont, E. (2022). Plio-Pleistocene ocean circulation changes in the GOA and its impacts on the carbon and nitrogen cycles and the CIS development. Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, 37(7), Article e2021PA004341. https://doi.org/10.1029/2021pa004341

The modern Gulf of Alaska (GOA) is a high nutrient low chlorophyll (HNLC) region, estimated to be important for nutrient cycling and CO2 exchange. Little is known of the GOA evolution over the Pliocene and Pleistocene as well as its impact on the Cor...

A multiproxy approach to long-term herbivore grazing dynamics in peatlands based on pollen, coprophilous fungi and faecal biomarkers (2022)
Journal Article
Davies, A., Harrault, L., Milek, K., McClymont, E., Dallimer, M., Hamilton, A., & Warburton, J. (2022). A multiproxy approach to long-term herbivore grazing dynamics in peatlands based on pollen, coprophilous fungi and faecal biomarkers. Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, 598, Article 111032. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.palaeo.2022.111032

Herbivory plays a significant role in regulating many contemporary terrestrial plant ecosystems, but remains an imperfectly understood component of past ecosystem dynamics because the diagnostic capability of methods is still being tested and refined...

Summer sea-ice variability on the Antarctic margin during the last glacial period reconstructed from snow petrel (Pagodroma nivea) stomach-oil deposits (2022)
Journal Article
McClymont, E. L., Bentley, M. J., Hodgson, D. A., Spencer-Jones, C. L., Wardley, T., West, M. D., …Phillips, R. A. (2022). Summer sea-ice variability on the Antarctic margin during the last glacial period reconstructed from snow petrel (Pagodroma nivea) stomach-oil deposits. Climate of the Past, 18(2), 381-403. https://doi.org/10.5194/cp-18-381-2022

Antarctic sea ice is a critical component of the climate system affecting a range of physical and biogeochemical feedbacks and supporting unique ecosystems. During the last glacial stage, Antarctic sea ice was more extensive than today, but uncertain...
