What caused the Ice Age? The Ice Age was primarily caused by variations in Earth’s orbit and axial tilt, collectively known as Milankovitch cycles. These cycles affect the amount and distribution of solar energy Earth receives, leading to periods of cooling and glaciation. When did the last ...
A team of researchers, including climatologists and an astronomer, has utilized an enhanced computer model to recreate the ice age cycles that occurred between 1.6 and 1.2 million years ago. The findings indicate that the glacial periods were primarily influenced by astronomical forces in quite a di...

You’re upset by the idea of a new Ice Age or the inexorable desertification of the planet? Sei angosciato dall'idea di una nuova glaciazione o dall'ineluttabile desertificazione del pianeta? Literature This mechanism is believed to be responsible for the timing of the ice age cycles...
The Intercontinental Exchange (Ice) has raised initial margin rates for API 2 and API 4 coal derivatives products, according to a circular issued on 25 January. The move marks a departure from mid-2022 to mid-2023, when margin rates were steadily lowered (see chart). Margins for API 2 fin...

In contrast to the hypothesis that MPs are redistributed via brine channels in salty waters, the ridging and rafting processes, as well as the numerous freezing and thawing cycles, are more likely to be the cause of the vertical mixing of MP concentrations in the northern Baltic Sea ice ...
This chart nearly and directly corresponds with the solar cycles. Particulary the Grand Solar Minimal(G.S.M.) that ‘most likely’ triggered the cool off resulting in the Great Winter during the 1600’s. Reply Sam Starr on September 21, 2020 4:27 pm The stalling of the Atlantic ...
Gaia got us out of the last Ice Age but ‘she’ needed wakening up by the volcanoes. BUT BUT but, volcanoes are powered by radioactive isotopes.. Considering that any radio-isotopes inside Earth must be at least 5 Billion years old plus however many billions of years they spent floating ...
