| Title: | A study of the astronomical theory of ice ages in a two-dimensional nonlinear climate model / R.-Q. Lin, R.-X. Huang, J.R. Apel. |
| Author(s): | Lin, R. -Q. Huang, R. -X. Apel, J. R. |
| Date: | 1992. |
| In: | Journal of Geophysical Research. (1992.), Vol. 97(D9) (1992) |
| Abstract: | Introduces one-level nonlinear seasonal energy-balance climate model with two-dimensional land--sea geography to study astronomical theory of ice ages. Model is more physically consistent and mathematically reliable than those previously reported. It reproduces current climate and explains how Earth's orbit causes ice ages; variations in orbit and in concentration of CO₂ appear to be major mechanisms that cause ice ages or climate changes; these changes are usually sudden. |
