New research reveals how the Earth might overcorrect for global warming. For a long time, scientists believed that the gradual breakdown of silicate rocks played the leading role in regulating Earth’s ...
New research shows that today’s global warming could eventually overshoot into runaway cooling, setting the stage for a ...
Studies of historic ice sheets, such as Kelley and Jackson's, allow researchers to learn what caused them to collapse. Ice ...

Carbon cycle ‘flaw’ can overshoot, plunging Earth into potential Ice Age: Study
It creates a positive feedback loop: the recycled nutrients fuel even more plankton growth, which removes more oxygen, leading to more nutrient recycling. The overall effect is the plankton’s ...
New research shows warming events can, under certain conditions, trigger long-term cooling strong enough to resemble past ice ages.
The extent of this cooling effect depends heavily on atmospheric oxygen levels. In Earth's distant past, when oxygen was ...

Oldest Blue Pigment Reveals Ice Age Art May Not Have Been Just Red and Black 13,000 Years Ago
The team found that the pigment was azurite, a deep-blue copper mineral. At ~13,000 years old, it represents the earliest ...
The Ice Age is often pictured as endless snow, advancing glaciers, and struggling creatures—and it is easy to assume Greece was the same.
