A record of the Earth’s temperature covering half a billion years
The results, which the researchers call PhanDA, estimate global temperatures over the last 485 million years, going back to the end of the Cambrian, the period that saw the diversification of the major groups of present-day animal life.
How Earth’s temperature has changed over the past 500 million years
A recent study confirms that Earth's temperature is strongly correlated with the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
In a Landmark Study, Scientists Discover Just How Much Earth's Temperature Has Changed Over Nearly 500 Million Years
We live in a rapidly warming world. Immense volumes of human-generated greenhouse gases are nudging Earth’s climate to a warmer and warmer state, further changing our planet as sea levels rise, living things shift how they live,
Study charts how Earth's global temperature has drastically changed over the past 485 million years, driven by COâ‚‚
A new study co-led by the Smithsonian and the University of Arizona offers the most detailed glimpse yet of how Earth's surface temperature has changed over the past 485 million years.
Over nearly half a billion years, Earth's global temperature has changed drastically, driven by carbon dioxide
A new study offers the most detailed glimpse yet into how Earth's surface temperature has changed over the past 485 million years. The data show that Earth has been and can be warmer than today -- but humans and animals cannot adapt fast enough to keep up with human-caused climate change.
New Study Charts How Earth’s Global Temperature Has Drastically Changed Over the Past 485 Million Years, Driven by Carbon Dioxide
A new study co-led by the Smithsonian and the University of Arizona offers the most detailed glimpse yet of how Earth’s surface temperature has changed over the past 485 million years. In a paper published today,
The Earth used to be much hotter. Why that’s bad news for people now.
An effort to understand Earth’s past climates uncovered a history of wild temperature shifts and offered a warning on the consequences of human-caused warming.
Earth’s global temperature has drastically changed over the last 500 million years
A recent study published in Science unveils a detailed curve of global mean surface temperatures that highlights Earth's temperature fluctuations over the Phanerozoic Eon, a period when life diversified and survived multiple mass extinctions.
Research Charts Earth’s Temperature Over 485 Million Years
If you were to compare Earth today with the planet 485 million years ago, when would it be warmer? A new research study charting temperatures over nearly half a million years reveals the surprising answer.
