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

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

Scientists have determined exactly how Earth's orbit and tilt affect glaciation and deglaciation, based on the length of ...

First of all the rotation axis changes relative to the Earth’s surface which is referred to as polar motion. The main component of polar motion is the so-called Chandler wobble. Although it was ...

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 ...

Scientists say small changes in the way the Earth orbits the sun hold the key in major global changes in climate, like ice ...

The researchers studied Earth’s orbit, tilt and wobble to solve a problem that had stumped scientists for decades. View on ...

Paleoclimate and archaeological evidence tells us that, 11,000-5,000 years ago, the Earth's slow orbital 'wobble' transformed today's Sahara desert to a land covered with vegetation and lakes.

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

A research team examined a million-year record of climate change, focusing on land-based ice sheets across the Northern ...
