For millions of years, Earth's climate has been driven by natural cycles linked to its orbit, shifting between ice ages and warm interglacial periods. A new study has uncovered a clear, predictable ...

Natural cycles in Earth's rotational axis and its orbit around the sun drive climatic changes, and now researchers have ...

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

The current period should be a stable interglacial, which means the next ice age would begin in about 10,000 years, the researchers said in their findings. “But such a transition to a glacial st ...

It has long been known that the current ice age is linked to changes in the Earth's orbit, writes the research team. So far, however, it has not been possible to identify the orbital parameters ...

Melting ice sheets are slowing the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC), the world's strongest ocean current, researchers have found. This melting has implications for global climate indicators, ...

The Antarctic Circumpolar Current could slow by around 20 per cent, the research found (Representational) The world's strongest ocean current could slow as melting Antarctic ice sheets flood it ...

Documentary series in which scientists discuss what the world may be like in the future. 5 million years in the future the Earth is in the last throes of the current ice age.

Melting Antarctic ice is weakening the world’s strongest ocean current, the Antarctic Circumpolar Current, according to research published in the journal Environmental Research Letters on Monday.
