Lower Pliocene  

Définition

  • The Lower Pliocene is a sub-epoch of the Pliocene Epoch, which lasted from 5.333 Ma (million years ago) to 3.600 Ma. The beginning of the Pliocene was marked by an increase in global temperatures relative to the cooler Messinian related to the 1.2 million year obliquity amplitude modulation cycle. The global average temperature in the mid-Pliocene (3.3–3 mya) was 2–3 °C higher than today, carbon dioxide levels were the same as today, and global sea level was 25 m higher. (Adapted from: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pliocene)
