A recent study highlights that ancient hyperthermals, driven by increased CO2 levels, can inform models predicting future climate change linked to human emissions.
Dustin Harper notes, 'The main reason we are interested in these global carbon release events is because they can provide analogs for future change,' indicating their significance.
Sediment cores from the Pacific Ocean reveal a strong relationship between sea-surface temperatures and CO2 levels, helping to reconstruct Earth’s climate history.
Research suggests that CO2 emissions during past hyperthermals are comparable to today’s human-driven emissions, aiding predictions of a significant rise in global temperatures.
