Ice Age
Jurassic Era
Earth has gone through multiple warm periods and cold periods throughout time.
What is climate?
Climate is a predictable pattern in the atmosphere and weather ranging from now back to thousands of years ago
Ice Cores and Tree Rings are two ways geologist can learn more about the past climate.
MIlankovitch Cycle
Normal Cycles
Milankovitch Cycles change the shape of the orbit. With the sun being further from the earth, the climate/weather will be colder than usual.
When a volcano erupts, the ash tends to block the sun causing colder weather.
Ocean Currents can affect the climate too. For example: warm ocean currents cause warmer weather/climate and cold ocean currents makes colder weather/climate, as well as when plates move, it can change the ocean currents.
