Milankovitch cycles — Past and future Milankovitch cycles. VSOP allows prediction of past and future orbital parameters with great accuracy. ε is obliquity (axial tilt). e is eccentricity. ϖ is longitude of perihelion. esin(ϖ) is the precession index, which together… … Wikipedia
Milutin Milankovitch — Milutin Milanković Milutin Milanković (souvent francisé en Milankovitch, en serbe cyrillique : Милутин Миланковић) est un ingénieur, un astronome, un géophysicien et un climatologue serbe. Né le 28 mai 1879 à Dalj, en Autriche… … Wikipédia en Français
Metonic cycle — Heliocentric Solar System In astronomy and calendar studies, the Metonic cycle or Enneadecaeteris (from Greek words for nineteen years) is a period of very close to 19 years which is remarkable for being very nearly a common multiple of the solar … Wikipedia
Climate cycle — A climate cycle is a type of recurring climate pattern that involves natural cyclic variations in the Earth s surface temperature, as indicated by temperature proxies found in glacier ice, sea bed sediment, tree ring studies or otherwise. Several … Wikipedia
Diurnal cycle — A diurnal cycle is any pattern that recurs every 24 hours as a result of one full rotation of the Earth.[1] In climatology, the diurnal cycle is one of the most basic forms of climate patterns. The most familiar such pattern is the diurnal… … Wikipedia
100,000-year problem — The 100,000 year problem is a discrepancy between past temperatures and the amount of incoming solar radiation, or insolation, which grows and shrinks periodically on a 100,000 year (100 ka) timescale.Due to variations in the Earth s orbit, the… … Wikipedia
Solar variation — Solar variations are changes in the amount of solar radiation emitted by the Sun. There are periodic components to these variations, the principal one being the 11 year solar cycle (or sunspot cycle), as well as aperiodic fluctuations. Solar… … Wikipedia

Eemian interglacial — The Eemian interglacial era, now known as the Eemian Stage, is temporally equivalent to the Sangamon Stage in North America, the Ipswichian Stage in the UK, and the Riss Würm interglacial in the Alps) is second to latest interglacial epoch of the … Wikipedia
Starvation (glaciology) — In glaciology, starvation is said to occur when a glacier retreats not because of temperature increases, but due to precipitation being so low that ice flow downwards into the zone of ablation exceeds the replenishment from snowfall. Eventually,… … Wikipedia
Geothermal gradient — The geothermal gradient is the rate of increase in temperature per unit depth in the Earth. It varies with location and is typically measured by determining the bottom open hole temperature after borehole drilling. To achieve accuracy the… … Wikipedia
