| As the authors point out themselves, the comparison of the historic data to the paleoclimate data is a bit questionable. |
| Major ecological and paleoclimate studies have been made in the dry valleys of Victoria Land east of McMurdo Sound. |
| The latter is important to glaciology, paleoclimate and changes in global sea level. |
| These days have focussed on specific IPY research topics such as sea ice, expeditions, paleoclimate, and permafrost. |
| Climate changes associated with the supercontinent of Pangea and with its eventual breakup and dispersal provide an example of the effect of plate tectonics on paleoclimate. |
