Trade Paperback. Zustand: New. Reprint. Large 8vo. Trade paperback. This volume aims to illustrate the current state of knowledge of the globally warm early Paleogene and to forge links among research conducted in different regions from different perspectives. Its 36 papers are organized into four sections that cover a variety of aspects of the Paleogene warm climate problem: Climate Mechanisms and Models, Marine Biotas, Environments, and Climate Change, Continental Biotas, Environments, and Climate Change, and Integrated Stratigraphic Framework. The volume is notable in that it is broad geographically, disciplinarily, taxonomically, and temporally, with an equally impressive variety of approaches. The conference from which this volume emerged (Climate and Biota of the Early Paleogene" held in Powell, Wyoming, in July 2001) was the most recent in a series of conferences devoted to the Paleogene, all of which have had the goal of encouraging the integration of research across the usual lines of terrestrial versus marine, geochemical versus paleontological, and modeling versus observational. Illustrated (illustrator).…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The geologic record contains evidence of greenhouse climates in the earth's past, and by studying these past conditions, we can gain greater understanding of the forcing mechanisms and feedbacks that influence today's climate. Leading experts in paleoclimatology combine in one integrated volume new and state-of-the-art paleontological, geological, and theoretical studies to assess intervals of global warmth. The book reviews what is known about the causes and consequences of globally warm climates, demonstrates current directions of research on warm climates, and outlines the central problems that remain unresolved. The chapters present new research on a number of different warm climate intervals from the early Paleozoic to the early Cenozoic. The book will be of great interest to researchers in paleoclimatology, and it will also be useful as a supplementary text on advanced undergraduate or graduate level courses in paleoclimatology and earth science. …
