Scope This session will discuss past environmental changes and events at multi-decadal to tectonic timescales toward an understanding of Earth's climate system by an integration of terrestrial and marine proxy studies and numerical modeling. This session also includes a special series of presentations on elucidating the climate system from the Warmhouse (Pliocene, Miocene) to the Hothouse (Eocene, Cretaceous) periods. We welcome a variety of paleo-environmental studies from a wide range of backgrounds. We hope this session will provide an opportunity to promote communication between participants from multidisciplinary fields.
