Researchers uncover how Mars affects Earth’s orbit, offering new insight into the planetary forces behind ice ages.
At half the size of Earth and one-tenth its mass, Mars is a featherweight as far as planets go. Yet new research reveals the extent to which Mars is quietly tugging on Earth's orbit and shaping the ...
Earth’s slow axial wobbles—known as precession cycles—do not just shape long-term climate trends. A new study led by researchers from China, Belgium, and Austria shows that these orbital motions can ...
How does Mars influence Earth’s climate cycles? This is what a recent study published in the Publications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific hopes to address as a trio of researchers from the ...
Understanding how water moves through the Earth system is fundamental to predicting climate impacts and ensuring sustainable ...
Scientists who work on long-term climate patterns usually stay close to Earth. The data is here, the records are clearer, and ...
Spiral Galaxy from Kirkland et al. CREDIT Chris Kirkland and colleagues. A new study of zircon crystals from two of Earth’s oldest continents indicates that the formation of Earth’s continental crust ...
