paleo question: so back when Antarctica was really warm (like, above 0°C) and a lot more species could live there, how did plants and animals cope with the whole 6-month day/night thing? did their sleep cycles change? did they hibernate or migrate in the nights? did it limit what could thrive there? Or is this a silly question and it was, like, whatever species past the Arctic Circle do more but more so.

Does anyone have any knowledge of peat bogs and climate change? I'm planning a story and want a character to be doing some sort of work or study in a peat bog, possibly with the aim of preserving or restoring peat bogs. Not sure if the field of study would be or or#agronomy or or some other field of and I would appreciate any suggestions or pointers in the right direction. Thank you!

The discovery of the first Titanomyrma fossil in Canada is raising new questions about ancient climate patterns and how these giant ants existed on both sides of the Atlantic at nearly the same time. vancouverisawesome.com/bc-news
