Article Synopsis
- The Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM) features a significant negative carbon isotope excursion, indicating a large release of isotopically light carbon, with ongoing debates about its sources and timing.
- Research shows a pre-onset carbon release, marked by a decline in carbon isotopes and an increase in sea surface temperatures by at least 2°C, along with lower ocean pH.
- The observed rapid recovery of carbon isotopes and pH levels suggests that this early release of carbon shares similar characteristics with current human-caused emissions in both volume and speed, differing from the main carbon isotope event.
