While the Statue of Liberty may not be submerged, low-lying places like Ellis Island could be underwater. By 2100, sea-level ...

Much of Earth's heat uptake is passed to the ocean, making ocean heat content key for understanding long-term climate ...

During this time, the Earth underwent repeated glacial (very cold) and interglacial (very warm) periods. In the interglacial periods (like the one we’re in now), ice sheets and ice caps melted ...

Based on that rule, and absent the warming influence of our greenhouse gas emissions, we could expect the next interglacial ...

There are times when the global climate is warmer (interglacial phases) and times when it has been cooler (glacial phases), when there have been ice ages. The last major cold period was known as ...

When this ice age ended 15,000 to 25,000 years ago, the Earth entered an interglacial warm period. This is the period that we live in today and the climate that allowed modern humans to begin our ...

His team used the Community Earth System Model, an advanced climate model, to replicate conditions from the last glacial period ... processes driving glacial-interglacial cycles,” he said.

Hundreds of large mammal species disappeared during the transition from the last glaciation to the present interglacial period, from around 50,000 to 5,000 years ago. We are looking at the effects of ...
