Sentences with phrase «cycles of the moon change»

Not exact matches

Re 92 and 105: First I just want to reitterate more generally what 105 said — Milankovitch cycles have had climate signals, in ice ages or otherwise, — well probably ever since the Moon formed, although the signal from times past will not always reach us, but I've read of evidence of Milankovitch precession cycle forcing of monsoons in lakes in Pangea (PS over geologic time the periods of some of the Milankovitch cycles have changed as the Moon recedes from the Earth due to tides).
The consensus is that several factors are important: atmospheric composition (the concentrations of carbon dioxide, methane); changes in the Earth's orbit around the Sun known as Milankovitch cycles (and possibly the Sun's orbit around the galaxy); the motion of tectonic plates resulting in changes in the relative location and amount of continental and oceanic crust on the Earth's surface, which could affect wind and ocean currents; variations in solar output; the orbital dynamics of the Earth - Moon system; and the impact of relatively large meteorites, and volcanism including eruptions of supervolcanoes.
Lavender has been used medicinally for centuries and has never been touted as an aid to women during their moon cycle or during the change of life.
This interactive and engaging project will lead students to discover and apply concepts of how the moon appears to change each night according to its location relative to the Sun and Earth as well as the cycle.
The tidal range will change slightly each day due to local weather conditions and as the cycle of the moon moves around the earth from neaps tides to spring tides.
Short term solar cycles of the 27 day rotation periods, due to the polarity shifts in magnetic flux changes in the solar wind, The moon has a North / South declinational component as part of it's set of orbital parameters.
The ocean surface is not level, but «lumpy» for various reasons; local gravity, density (temperature, salinity), air pressure, currents, wind, outflow from rivers, rotation of the Earth, tides, changes in Moon's orbit, ocean cycles such as the Pacific Oscillation, North Atlantic Oscillation, and a few others I can't remember just now.
