“There were periods when we found significantly more large eruptions than in others” says Kutterolf, the lead author of the Geology article.After comparing these patterns with the climate history, there was an amazing match. The periods of high volcanic activity followed fast, global temperature increases and associated rapid ice melting.

so this would explain why temperature rises cause carbon dioxide rise in the past. the extra carbon dioxide comes from volcanos
not a bad match. too bad most climatologists won’t notice that the arrow of causality is heat causes carbon dioxide rise rather than carbon dioxide causes heat rise.
Makes sense to me. That and that underwater volcanoes, which occur in much greater numbers
than above sea level, also contribute to the heating of the oceans, causing even more CO2 to be released into the atmosphere.
