From jungle to ice: the role of changes in weathering and ocean circulation patterns in the onset of Antarctic glaciation
The transition from the Greenhouse Eocene climate (55 – 34Ma) to the Icehouse regime of the Oligocene (34 – 23Ma) was marked by a widespread cooling at the Eocene-Oligocene Transition (EOT) (~34Ma), followed by major Antarctic glaciation. The relative contribution of changes in ocean circulation and...
