POLARIS investigates ancient polar forests from the Early Eocene to understand their structure and role in carbon cycling. The project employs advanced palaeobotanical techniques to reconstruct these ecosystems and their atmospheric conditions.
Fossil evidence from past warm periods reveals that tropical-like forests once extended well beyond the polar circles, creating a biome vastly different from today's Arctic.
Due to the absence of modern equivalents, our understanding of the adaptations and structure of these ancient polar forests remains limited and often speculative.POLARIS will investigate a polar forest from Earth's last prolonged extreme greenhouse interval—the Early Eocene Climatic Optimum (ca. 53–49 million years ago).
