In fact, since volcanoes have not been very active in the Cainozoic, the supply of CO has been run down somewhat.

They were overtaken by the flowering plants, which first appeared in the Cretaceous, and became dominant in the Cainozoic era.

It is the second period of the Cainozoic era.

This can be explained by the recent deep subsidence in Cainozoic times.

The UNESCO listing is for two separate areas where fossils from the Cainozoic period have been found.

The Eucla Basin is a Cainozoic basin consisting mostly of carbonate sediments and sedimentary rocks.

Or perhaps the increasingly unstable environments of the late Cainozoic associated with climatic deterioration caused a selection for eurytopic organisms well adapted to withstand environmental instability.
