To understand climate change today, we first need to know how Earth s climate changed over the past 450 million years. Finding answers depends upon contributions from a wide range of sciences, not just the rock record uncovered by geologists. In Earth s Climate Evolution, Colin …
To understand climate change today, we need to know how the Earth's climate has changed over the past 450 million years. This will involve contributions from a wide range of sciences. In Earth's Climate Evolution, Colin Summerhayes analyses reports and records of past climate ch…

The book takes a unique approach to the subject providing a description of the greenhouse and icehouse worlds of the past 450 million years since land plants emerged, ignoring major earlier glaciations like that of Snowball Earth, which occurred around 600 million years ago in a…

Carbon Monoxide (CO) is an important atmospheric trace gas that affects the oxidative capacity of the atmosphere by being a major sink of the hydroxyl radical. Ice cores may preserve a record of past atmospheric CO for analysis and interpretation; therefore, a new analytical sys…
This body of work expands the understanding of in situ cosmogenic 14C production and retention in the upper layer of accumulating ice sheets and presents new measurements of 14CH4 that improve our understanding of the fossil component of the CH4 budget. Samples were collected at…
