Natural cycles in Earth's rotational axis and its orbit around the sun drive climatic changes, and now researchers have ...
Earth’s climate has never been static. It shifts between warm interglacial periods and deep freezes, driven by complex ...
The Earth has gone through successive glacial and interglacial periods for about 2.5 million years. A new study reveals when ...
A researcher with UW collaborated on the project to come up with the most precise predictive Ice Age model to date.

The Little Ice Age was a period of global cooling that began during around 1300 CE and lasted until about 1850. Average temperatures in the Northern Hemisphere dropped by about 1.1 degrees Fahrenheit ...
A new study shows that the recurring ice age cycles are apparently associated with changes in the Earth's orbit around the ...
New Zealand has seen equally radical shifts in habitat before—during the Ice Age, which lasted 2.6 million years and ended about 12,000 years ago. At its height, parts of the country were up to ...
