Understanding Climate Recovery From Warming.
The Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM) was a rapid warming event (hyperthermal) 56 million years ago. It is studied as an analogy of current climate warming, so that we understand what happens during increasing temperatures.. We are examining how the climate recovered several tens of thousands of years after the warming started.

The site of high CO2 drawdown, due to high chemical weathering. However, the glacier is rapidly receding, gradually decreasing its effect on removing CO2 from the atmosphere.
