Termination of global warmth at the Palaeocene/Eocene boundary through productivity feedback

The onset of the Palaeocene/Eocene thermal maximum (about 55 Myr ago) was marked by global surface temperatures warming by 5–7 °C over approximately 30,000 yr (ref. 1 ), probably because of enhanced mantle outgassing 2 , 3 and the pulsed release of ∼1,500 gigatonnes of methane carbon from decomposin...
