Find out what scientists say about the Next Ice Age and the natural rhythms shaping our planet's climate over millennia.

Earth's history is a roller-coaster of climate fluctuations, of relative warmth giving way to frozen periods of glaciation ...

Glacial cycles aren’t random; they follow a predictable rhythm dictated by Earth’s orbit. A study analyzing climate records ...

The work elucidates how it came to pass. Obliquity causes variation in seasonality over a 41,000-year period, which affects ...

Orbital precession greatly influences North African climate because it controls the strength and northward penetration of the monsoonal rains (Kutzbach, 1981; Liu et al., 2006). Strengthening ...

The ebb and flow of Pleistocene glacial cycles is not random; it follows a predictable pattern dictated by the distinct and deterministic influence of Earth’s orbital geometry, according to a new ...

Scientists successfully observed 'orbital pumping', a new phenomenon in which orbital currents are generated from the ...

Earth’s climate has never been static. It shifts between warm interglacial periods and deep freezes, driven by complex ...

The ebb and flow of Pleistocene glacial cycles is not random; it follows a predictable pattern dictated by the distinct and deterministic influence of ...
