Abstract |
Zhang et al. (Reports, 4 April 2014, p. 84) interpret TEX86 and U-37(K') paleotemperature data as providing a fundamentally new view of tropical Pacific climate during the warm Pliocene period. We argue that, within error, their Pliocene data actually support previously published data indicating average western warm-pool temperature similar to today and a reduced zonal gradient, referred to as a permanent El Nio-like state. |
