This video from the Museum's Florida Fossils exhibit describes the Pliocene Epoch, 5 million to 2 million years ago The formation of a land bridge across Panama in Central America about 3 million years ago was a major biotic event. Both North and South America had been previously isolated for millions of years. Each had evolved its own unique flora and fauna.
Contact between North and South America allowed for the overland dispersal of organisms between the two continents. Mammals living in North America invaded South America, and South American mammals moved north. The closure of the seaway between North and South America apparently resulted in extinctions of many marine organisms. However, newly formed habitats also promoted the evolution of many new species.

A huge pool of warm water that spanned the Tropics four million years ago suggests climate models might be too conservative in forecasting tropical changes. Dr Chris Brierley (UCL Geography), a co-author of the paper published in Nature, explains that this giant mass of water would have dramatically altered rainfall in the tropics. Its decay and the consequential drying of East Africa may have been a factor in Hominid evolution.
With green house gases accelerating climate change, Dr Brierley says we cannot rule out such a future for the world with the return of uniformly warm seas in the Tropics.

The Pliocene Epoch is the period in the geologic timescale that extends from 5.333 million to 2.58 million years BP. It is the second and youngest epoch of the Neogene Period in the Cenozoic Era. The Pliocene follows the Miocene Epoch and is followed by the Pleistocene Epoch. Prior to the 2009 revision of the geologic time scale, which placed the 4 most recent major glaciations entirely within the Pleistocene, the Pliocene also included the Gelasian stage, which lasted from 2.588 to 1.806 million years ago, and is now included in the Pleistocene.
As with other older geologic periods, the geological strata that define the start and end are well identified but the exact dates of the start and end of the epoch are slightly uncertain. The boundaries defining the Pliocene are not set at an easily identified worldwide event but rather at regional boundaries between the warmer Miocene and the relatively cooler Pliocene. The upper boundary was set at the start of the Pleistocene glaciations.

The Pliocene epoch (5.33-2.59 Myrs) was the last sustained interval when global climate was significantly warmer than today. As such it is considered a good potential analogue for the conditions predicted for the end of this century due to anthropogenic climate change. However, the precise dynamics of the climate system as well as the causes of the termination of the Pliocene warmth and the onset of Quaternary climate are still poorly understood.
Following the successful first workshop on Pliocene climate in Bordeaux in 2009, the second workshop on Pliocene climate was held in Bristol (UK) on Monday 9 - Tuesday 10 September 2013 (http://www.bristol.ac.uk/cabot/events/2013/273.html).

The Pliocene (/ˈplaɪəˌsiːn/; also Pleiocene) Epoch (symbol PO) is the epoch in the geologic timescale that extends from 5.333 million to 2.58 million years BP. It is the second and youngest epoch of the Neogene Period in the Cenozoic Era. The Pliocene follows the Miocene Epoch and is followed by the Pleistocene Epoch. Prior to the 2009 revision of the geologic time scale, which placed the four most recent major glaciations entirely within the Pleistocene, the Pliocene also included the Gelasian stage, which lasted from 2.588 to 1.806 million years ago, and is now included in the Pleistocene.

The Pliocene epoch (5.33-2.59 Myrs) was the last sustained interval when global climate was significantly warmer than today. As such it is considered a good potential analogue for the conditions predicted for the end of this century due to anthropogenic climate change. However, the precise dynamics of the climate system as well as the causes of the termination of the Pliocene warmth and the onset of Quaternary climate are still poorly understood.
Following the successful first workshop on Pliocene climate in Bordeaux in 2009, the second workshop on Pliocene climate was held in Bristol (UK) on Monday 9 - Tuesday 10 September 2013 (http://www.bristol.ac.uk/cabot/events/2013/273.html). Organized by the University of Bristol and the Cabot Institute, the workshop brought together 80 international scientists from the proxy data and modelling communities to identify the most pressing research questions for the international Pliocene community and to identify gaps in our current understanding of this crucial interval.

The Pliocene epoch (5.33-2.59 Myrs) was the last sustained interval when global climate was significantly warmer than today. As such it is considered a good potential analogue for the conditions predicted for the end of this century due to anthropogenic climate change. However, the precise dynamics of the climate system as well as the causes of the termination of the Pliocene warmth and the onset of Quaternary climate are still poorly understood.
Following the successful first workshop on Pliocene climate in Bordeaux in 2009, the second workshop on Pliocene climate was held in Bristol (UK) on Monday 9 - Tuesday 10 September 2013 (http://www.bristol.ac.uk/cabot/events/2013/273.html). Organized by the University of Bristol and the Cabot Institute, the workshop brought together 80 international scientists from the proxy data and modelling communities to identify the most pressing research questions for the international Pliocene community and to identify gaps in our current understanding of this crucial interval.

Love Is Forever
I relive the same old dream day and night
Memories of love I knew
I couldn’t live my life, or so it seemed
My heart cried out for only you
Oh, I believe in love, girl I believe in you
Things you do, I’m falling in love again with you
A broken heart can mend if given time
I know why love is forever, love is forever with you
With every passing day I realise
That time will never heal the pain
You’re all that I’ve been thinking of
Can’t we fall in love again
Oh, I believe in love, girl I believe in you
Things you do, I’m falling in love again with you
A broken heart can mend if given time
I know why love is forever, love is forever with you
Every road will lead me back to you again, my love
Oh I cry so many tears, I couldn’t face another day without you
So tell me you care
Oh, ooh, ooh, yeah, I believe in love, cos I believe in you
Things you do, I’m falling in love again with you
I tried to let it go but it wouldn’t die
