New research published in the journal Nature Geoscience shows that during Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum, a period about 55 million years ago when the planet warmed rapidly, only about 40% of that warming can be attributed to rises in CO2 in the atmosphere. In short, “theoretical models cannot explain what we observe in the geological record,” report co-author G…
