A study by the Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont (ICP-CERCA) with the involvement of the UAB indicates that between 12.5 and 9 million years ago, in the Vallès-Penedès basin, rainfall was twice as high as it is today, and the climate was subtropical. The research has reconstructed the precipitation and climatic conditions of the past from fossils of small mammals found throughout the area. The research is published in the Journal of Mammalian Evolution.
