"Christopher K. Junium, assistant professor of Earth sciences in the College of Arts and Sciences (A&S), is the lead author of a study that uses the nitrogen isotopic composition of sediments to understand changes in marine conditions during the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM) -- a brief period of rapid global warming approximately 56 million years ago. Junium's team -- which includes Benjamin T. Uveges G'17, a Ph.D. candidate in A&S, and Alexander J. Dickson, a lecturer in geochemistry at Royal Holloway at the University of London -- has published an article on the subject in Nature Communications (Springer Nature, 2018)…."

And by rapid they mean by geological standards. The maximum temperature peaked for a period of about 100,000 years. The entire PETM lasted even longer. |
