This session explores how organisms and sedimentary systems have responded to past climate evolution. By examining fossil records and sedimentary archives, we aim to uncover the interplay between climatic drivers, sedimentary dynamics, and biological evolution. Presentations will cover key intervals of Earth's history, from deep geological time to Recent, shedding light on how changes observed in the past biosphere and sediments/rocks may reflect responses to climatic and environmental shifts. The session calls for abstracts presenting paleontological and sedimentary datasets that contribute to the interpretation and reconstruction of past climates. These insights will help deepen our understanding of past climate dynamics and aid in predicting future climate change and biotic response.
