The procession [i.e. precession] constant of the Earth: variations through the ice-age / William R. Peltier, Xianhua Jiang.
Title: | The procession [i.e. precession] constant of the Earth: variations through the ice-age / William R. Peltier, Xianhua Jiang. |
Author(s): | Peltier, William R. Jiang, Xianhua. |
Date: | 1994. |
In: | Geophysical Research Letters. (1994.), Vol. 21(21) (1994) |
Abstract: | Calulates history of variations in Earth's precession constant H that are forced by variations in surface nass associated with late Pleistocene glaciation and deglaciation events. Analyses show that magnitude of ΔH/H₀ is lower than that required to cause recently hypothesized resonant reduction of precession period. |
Notes: | Geophysical Research Letters. Vol. 21(21) :2299-2302 (1994). |
Keywords: | 551.336 -- Ice ages. 551.337 -- Chronology of the Pleistocene and recent periods. E7 -- Glaciology: glacial geology and ice ages. |
