Loss of Earth system resilience during early Eocene transient global warming events

One of our scientific advisor, Marten Scheffer, and colleagues published a new study about the effects of climate and carbon cycle dynamics on Earth system resilience.

This paper analyzes the dynamics of climate and carbon cycle indicators acquired from marine sediments to detect changes in Earth system resilience and to identify positive feedbacks.

The article can be read at the journal website.
