The Climate Of The Jurassic Period

Hot and dry, with strong seasonality at first, changing to warm and moist with no polar ice and vast flooded areas.

The Climate For The Cretaceous Period

Temperatures were warm, seasonality was low, and global sea levels were high (no polar ice!) at the beginning of the Cretaceous. Later, sea levels dropped, seasonality increased, and there were greater extremes in temperature between the poles and the equator.
