Constraints on ocean circulation at the Paleocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum from neodymium isotopes
Global warming during the Paleocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM) ∼ 55 million years ago (Ma) coincided with a massive release of carbon to the ocean–atmosphere system, as indicated by carbon isotopic data. Previous studies have argued for a role of changing ocean circulation, possibly as a trigge...
