The Neogene–Quaternary (Pliocene-Pleistocene) transition around 2.8 to 2.45 million years ago represents a fundamental shift in Earth’s climate system. The extreme glacial-interglacial oscillations that characterize our more recent climate emerged at this time, although the causes remain uncertain. Deep-ocean sediments offer clues to climate history owing to their continuous and well-dated character, and because the oceans themselves are crucial heat and CO

大约280万年到245万年前的新近纪-第四纪(上新世-更新世)转换代表着地球气候系统的根本性转变。以我们最近的气候为特征的极端冰川-间冰期振荡此时出现，尽管原因尚不确定。深海沉积物由于其连续和准确的年代特征，以及海洋本身是至关重要的热量和CO，为气候历史提供了线索
