Discover the natural causes of climate change with Milankovitch Cycles, impacting Earth's orbit, axis, and solar energy ...

This video explores the Milankovitch cycles, the astronomical theory proposed by Serbian scientist Milutin Milankovitch, which explains how variations in Earth’s orbit, axial tilt, and precession ...

MOLINE, Ill. — It was in the 1920s that a Serbian geophysicist, Mulitin Milanković, theorized that variations in Earth's tilt and wobbling about its axis impact the amount of energy being received ...

Nearly 10,000 years ago, Earth came out of its most recent ice age. Vast, icy swaths of land around the poles thawed, melting the glaciers that had covered them for nearly 100,000 years. Why, after ...

Milankovitch Cycles describe how variations in Earth’s orbit and tilt influence long-term climate shifts, including the ...

Changes in Earth's orbit have helped pace climatic change for millennia. Scientists are now trying to understand whether - and how - these changes remodeled the landscapes our ancient ancestors ...

A July 18 post (direct link, archive link) on X, formerly Twitter, features an illustration of the sun. "THE REAL REASON FOR CLIMATE CHANGE: The distance of where you are from the Sun is constantly ...

"Such a transition to a glacial state in 10,000 years' time is very unlikely to happen, because human emissions of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere have already diverted the climate from its natural ...

(via PBS Terra) Is global warming just part of Earth’s natural cycle? In this episode of Weathered, we break down why that’s not the full story. From ice ages and Milankovitch cycles to the role of ...
