Effects of Rapid Global Warming at the Paleocene-Eocene Boundary on Neotropical Vegetation
Open accessAbstract
Hot Tropical Explosion: The Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM), 55 million years ago, was a unique episode of rapid global warming (∼5°C), often used as an ancient analog for future global climate change. Climate alteration during the PETM has been extensively studied in the marine realm, and from a few temperate to polar terrestrial localities, but little is known about how the tropics responded to the high temperatures and high levels of CO 2 . Using evidence from pollen analysis, Jaramillo et al. (p. 957 ) show that rapid tropical forest diversification occurred during the PETM, without plant extinction or regional aridity. Unexpectedly, diversity seemed to increase at higher temperatures, contradicting previous assumptions that tropical flora will succumb if temperatures become excessive.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
