🌊Melting ice sheets in North America drove the rise in global sea level at the end of the last ice age more than scientists previously thought, according to new research published this week in Nature Geoscience. https://t.co/amzA0okhDS

In a new study co-led by USF professor Patrick Rafter, researchers used forams from the Pliocene to show that warming in the tropical Pacific — an area of productive fisheries — may not trigger the severe decline in nutrients predicted by earlier models. https://t.co/euvrySrqu3

The researchers used a cutting-edge approach to predict future ocean conditions by examining the distant past through analyses of microscopic fossils.
