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

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

For millions of years, Earth's climate has been driven by natural cycles linked to its orbit, shifting between ice ages and ...

A researcher with UW collaborated on the project to come up with the most precise predictive Ice Age model to date.

The research, published Thursday, February 27, in the journal Science, found a strong connection between Earth’s axial tilt ...

Back when the Earth was being overrun by glaciers, and animals were scurrying to save themselves from the upcoming Ice Age, a sloth named Sid, a woolly mammoth named Manny, and a saber-toothed ...

However, don't rush for your woolly hat and scarf just yet, because the long-term effects of human-made climate change could prevent the next ice age from ever happening. Our planet has always ...

A new study shows that the recurring ice age cycles are apparently associated with changes in the Earth's orbit around the ...

A volcanic eruption in Iceland sends a glacier towards North America, causing everything in it's path to freeze. A family man struggles to escape the onslaught of the coming ice age.
