    Kurzfassung: Atmospheric CO 2 concentrations are rapidly rising. To reliably predict the future, researchers have looked at past climates with comparable CO 2 concentrations, dating back millions of years. Although these past climates are not perfect analogs of the future, they still provide information about how the climate system functions under increased CO 2 concentrations. Because there are no direct observations of past climate states, climate variables need to be inferred from geological data, generally referred to as proxies. On page 116 of this issue, Herbert et al. ( 1 ) present a reconstruction of the evolution of atmospheric CO 2 concentration over the past 20 million years. Their data provide a consistent explanation for the long-term evolution of global temperature and ice sheets on Earth and give a glimpse into its climate future.

    Kurzfassung: Accurate understanding of permafrost dynamics is critical for evaluating and mitigating impacts that may arise as permafrost degrades in the future; however, existing projections have large uncertainties. Studies of how permafrost responded historically during Earth’s past warm periods are helpful in exploring potential future permafrost behavior and to evaluate the uncertainty of future permafrost change projections. Here, we combine a surface frost index model with outputs from the second phase of the Pliocene Model Intercomparison Project to simulate the near‐surface (~3 to 4 m depth) permafrost state in the Northern Hemisphere during the mid-Pliocene warm period (mPWP, ~3.264 to 3.025 Ma). This period shares similarities with the projected future climate. Constrained by proxy-based surface air temperature records, our simulations demonstrate that near‐surface permafrost was highly spatially restricted during the mPWP and was 93 ± 3% smaller than the preindustrial extent. Near‐surface permafrost was present only in the eastern Siberian uplands, Canadian high Arctic Archipelago, and northernmost Greenland. The simulations are similar to near‐surface permafrost changes projected for the end of this century under the SSP5-8.5 scenario and provide a perspective on the potential permafrost behavior that may be expected in a warmer world.
