New research suggests that Earth’s orbital variations—the slow changes in its tilt, axial precession, and shape of its ...

"Such a transition to a glacial state in 10,000 years' time is very unlikely to happen, because human emissions of carbon ...

Notably, a 1976 study found geological evidence showing that two of Earth's parameters — obliquity and precession, or changes in Earth's axial tilt and how the axis wobbles around itself, respectively ...

Glacial cycles aren’t random; they follow a predictable rhythm dictated by Earth’s orbit. A study analyzing climate records ...

and a 20,000-year cycle in the "wobble" — much like a top wobbles — of the Earth's axis (precession). All three of orbital cycles — called Milankovitch cycles — impact African climate on ...

Research links Earth's axial tilt to past ice ages, showing human-driven warming may prevent future glaciations.

Following is a transcript of the video. Early in the history of our solar system, something mysteriously knocked Earth slightly off its axis. So today we tilt at 23.5 degrees. But what would ...

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

Earth's axis is currently tilted at a 23.5-degree ... For the study, the researchers plotted known changes in obliquity and precession over the past 800,000 years. They also plotted the expansion ...

A pattern of encroaching and retreating ice sheets during and between ice ages has been shown to match certain orbital parameters of Earth around the sun, leading to researchers being able to ...

Notably, a 1976 study found geological evidence showing that two of Earth's parameters — obliquity and precession, or changes in Earth's axial tilt and how the axis wobbles around itself ...
