Astronomical Theory of Climate Change
NOAA Paleoclimatology Program educational material concerning the Milankovitch theory, which
explains changes in the seasons as a result of changes in the earth's orbit around the sun.

Astronomical Theory Offers New Explanation For Ice Age
Article about research suggesting that cyclical changes in the location of the Earth's orbit
causing differing amounts of extraterrestrial debris to come into the atmosphere, and not the
Milankovitch theory, explain cycles of glaciation in the last million years.

The Great Climate Flip-Flop
Atlantic Monthly article reviews the abrupt (less than a decade transition) climate changes of the
past, analyzes the role of the Gulf Stream's thermohaline circulation switching modes of operation,
and presents three scenarios for the future, including potential methods for stabilizing the
flip-flop tendencies.
