Sentences with phrase «of ice age cycles»

How much it might vary is very difficult to tell, but for instance, it is clear that from the Pliocene to the Quaternary (the last ~ 2,5 million years of ice age cycles), the climate has become more sensitive to orbital forcing.

A simple example is to think of ice age cycles, which are controlled purely by energy balance (solar cycles + orbital cycles + atmospheric composition) and there is not a large sensitivity to initial conditions.

CO2 did come from oceans as they heated up at end of ice age cycles with significant contributions from eurasian swamps as well.
