The team studied nine periods in the climatic and glacial histories of Antarctica, starting from 34 million years ago when the first major continental-size ice sheet of Antarctica was established. They also looked at the mid-Miocene (about 14 million years ago) when the mean global temperature was 4 degrees Celsius warmer than today.
