By looking at the chemistry of rocks deposited during that time period, specifically coupled carbon and sulfur isotope data, a research team led by University of California, Riverside biogeochemists reports that oxygen - free and hydrogen sulfide - rich waters extended across roughly five percent of the global ocean during this major climatic perturbation — far more than the modern ocean's 0.1 percent but much less than previous estimates for this event.
The late Proterozoic — the time period beginning less than a billion years ago following this remarkable chapter of sustained low levels of oxygen — was strikingly different, marked by extreme climatic events manifest in global - scale glaciation, indications of at least intervals of modern - like oxygen abundances, and the emergence and diversification of the earliest animals.

By measuring the size of the largest raindrop imprints (inset) in ash that solidified soon after an eruption 2.7 billion years ago (pocked slab, main image) and comparing them to the imprints made by drops of various sizes and momentums in lab tests, the team estimates that the density of Earth's oxygen - free atmosphere 2.7 billion years ago most likely ranged between 50 % and 108 % of today's air and was certainly less than twice its modern density — a thickness insufficient to offset the dimness of the sun at the time.
On Titan, where solar ultraviolet radiation is much weaker and oxygen - bearing molecules are substantially less abundant, methane can last 10 million to 100 million years (which is still a short time in geologic terms).
As less methane was available to to remove oxygen from the atmosphere, however, the result was a build up of oxygen over time during the subsequent «Great Oxygenation Event» (or «Great Oxidation Event») between Years 2.2 and 2.3 billion (Devin Powell, New Scientist, January 12, 2009; 2007 NASA press release; and Anbar el al, 2007).
Now, if you have all this very cold, nearly freezing water surrounding these ice caps, sucking up carbon dioxide out of the polar atmosphere, at nearly the highest possible rate, 30 times faster than oxygen, and 70 times faster than nitrogen, doesn't it stand to reason that the air that remains might just have a lot less carbon dioxide in it than the atmosphere across the rest of the planet?
While about 1,000 times less dense at Pluto's orbit than at Earth's, solar winds carrying protons and electrons, as well as ionized helium and oxygen, gust outward at about 300 to 500 km / s (187 to 311 miles / s).
