“…Whales: Primitive archaeoceti toothed whales (the Pakicetidae, Ambulocetidae) were first recorded from the Thanetian/Ypresian (Early Eocene), and with the first radiation and Remingtoncetidae which developed in the Early to Middle Eocene (Figure 1) [33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50]. During the early Middle Eocene (Lutetian) at least four whales (or groups) were present around the world, although again only in warm oceans, these being Ambulocetus, Indicatus, Maiacetus and Aegyptocetus [36][37][38]42,49].…”

“…These modifications allowed cetaceans to become fully aquatic, and to colonize pelagic waters worldwide. Support for this model of functional shift/ geographic spread comes from the spatial distribution of cetacean fossils: from an early Eocene origin in the Indo-Pakistan region, cetaceans spread outward, achieving a southern temperate distribution (Köhler and Fordyce, 1997) and expanding into the tropical eastern Pacific (Uhen et al, 2011) by the late middle Eocene (Bartonian), and then extending to near-polar in the Priabonian (Mitchell, 1989;Uhen, 2010). Fluke-propelled pelagic cetaceans could exploit widely spaced, highly productive areas of upwelling -oceanic features that were, in turn, enhanced as ocean circulation patterns and global climate changed in response to the opening of the Southern Ocean and establishment of permanent ice on Antarctica (Berger, 2007;Pagani et al, 2011).…”
