Yeah, the Mesozoic had a wide variation in Temperature, coupled with a stable CO2 concentration.

That jumped right out at me.

Wuzzup widdat?

Maybe the answers can be found in the rate of sedimentary deposition stalagmite formation in relation to the increased rainfall patterns from increased atmospheric water circulation. Lower clouds have a much larger albedo effect than higher clouds and one would think increased rain bearing lower cloud mass in a warmer world would allow increase concentrations of co2 without increased warming due to the faster heat release cycle of rain forming clouds. There are some interesting articles on temperature and cloud / rain formation and the release of energy from the earths biosphere. Many thanks
