New geological data has given more insight into the rate and magnitude of global sea level rise following the last ice age, ...

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

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 ...

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 ...

A new study published in Nature provides key insights into sea level rise after the last ice age, around 11,700 years ago.

Driving the news: In a study released this month, researchers from Oregon State University analyzed methane trapped in ice from the last Ice Age to examine ... Changes to our current climate ...

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 ...
