During the transition from the Tertiary to the Quaternary period, Earth's environment underwent significant changes, characterized by a cooling climate and the development of ice ages. The Tertiary was marked by a warm climate with lush forests and diverse flora and fauna, while the Quaternary saw the expansion of polar ice caps and glaciers, leading to drier conditions and more pronounced seasonal changes. This shift also influenced the evolution and migration of species, as many adapted to colder environments or faced extinction. The Quaternary period continues to be defined by repeated glacial and interglacial cycles that shape current ecosystems.

During the Tertiary period, which lasted from about 66 million to 2.6 million years ago, Earth's climate was generally warmer and more humid than today. This era saw the proliferation of forests and diverse ecosystems, with tropical conditions extending to higher latitudes. As the Tertiary progressed, the climate gradually cooled, leading to the development of grasslands and the eventual onset of ice ages toward the end of the period. Overall, the Tertiary was marked by significant climatic shifts that shaped the evolution of flora and fauna.
volcanoes change the earths surface due to the lava set hard and drys which can make the surface bobbly and ruff also it makes the land more fertilekill people

there was no quarternary period, so make up a climate for your made up time period.
During the Tertiary Period, the surface of the earth looked much like it does today. It was quite warm with periods of cold much like today.
