Scientists have predicted future glacial periods by matching Earth's past ice ages to its orbit around the sun. But their new model doesn’t account for how human-made carbon emissions could change ...

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

Now, new geological data show that sea levels rose about 125 feet (38 meters) between 11,000 and 3,000 years ago, according ...

Our planet’s last glacial period (colloquially known as the Ice Age) began around 115,000 years ago and lasted for over 103,000 years of the Pleistocene Epoch. During this time, ...

A group of scientists think they can now predict when the next ice age could grip Earth, but don't worry, it's not for a very long time. An ice age should begin in about 10,000 years, but its ...

The researchers unearthed 427 artefacts, including stone tools and the first ochre pieces- the red-coloured rock used in ...

Scientists have determined exactly how Earth's orbit and tilt affect glaciation and deglaciation, based on the length of these parameters' cycles and clues hidden at the bottom of the ocean.

Based on the orbital parameters, if humans had not altered the climate so dramatically, the next ice age would be in about 10,000 years. "And because we are now living in an interglacial period ...

Joe Marten’s Feb. 25 letter (“Addressing energy poverty and combatting climate change) states I am “essentially claiming ...

New research provides precise estimates, offering the first glimpse into sea level rise during the early Holocene. Read the ...

Feb. 18, 2025 — New esearch shows Aotearoa has been increasingly accepting new bird species from around the world since the start of the Ice Age, offering clues into future migration ...

It means future work that includes data from the post-industrial period will likely push back the timing of the next ice age.
