Palaeogeographic regulation of glacial events during the Cretaceous supergreenhouse
Indirect evidence indicates the surprising occurrence of glacial events during the peak warmth of the Cretaceous world. Here, based on coupled climate-ice sheet model simulations, the authors show that such events were likely thwarted by palaeogeographic reorganisations and complex ocean-atmosphere...

| Summary: | Indirect evidence indicates the surprising occurrence of glacial events during the peak warmth of the Cretaceous world. Here, based on coupled climate-ice sheet model simulations, the authors show that such events were likely thwarted by palaeogeographic reorganisations and complex ocean-atmosphere feedbacks. |
