Earth’s ice age cycles are predictable - but humans may change that
Earth’s climate follows a natural cycle of ice ages and warm periods. A new study shows that small orbital changes drive ...
Scientists match Earth’s ice age cycles with orbital shifts
Earth emerged from the last ice age around 11,700 years ago. A new analysis suggests the next one could be expected in 10,000 ...
Ice age cycles directly linked to changes in Earth's orbit for the first time
It has been assumed that changes in the Earth's orbit around the sun are responsible for the ice age cycles. It is now clear ...

Study Reveals How Earth's Orbit Triggers Ice Ages, And There's One in The Next 11,000 Years
Earth's history is a roller-coaster of climate fluctuations, of relative warmth giving way to frozen periods of glaciation ...
Ice Ages Follow a Hidden Pattern, and Scientists Just Cracked It
Glacial cycles aren’t random; they follow a predictable rhythm dictated by Earth’s orbit. A study analyzing climate records ...

Next Ice Age Should Be 10,000 Years Away – But Humans May Disrupt That
The work elucidates how it came to pass. Obliquity causes variation in seasonality over a 41,000-year period, which affects how much total energy the higher latitudes get in summer. Precession changes ...
Ancient glacier finding reveals clues to how complex life on Earth evolved, scientists say
Glaciers once inched toward the sea, gouging rocks. When the ice masses melted, they infused oceans with nutrients that may ...
