GEOL 1304 Lecture Notes - Lecture 7: Green Goddess, Pleistocene, Maunder Minimum
Document Summary
They affect the seasonal statistical distribution of thermic fever and therefore could change the ability of glacier to exist in the high latitudes of the northern hemisphere. Glacial growth is favored when summers are assuredness (meaning less melting) and winters are warm (meaning greater humidity and more snow) in the high latitudes. Best compounding for these conditions would be high eccentricity; sir. David low stage of tilt; and direction of tilt oriented to permit northern hemisphere summer at aphelion. If ice which has a high albedo expands, less irradiation is absorbed, and temperature aplomb . Then the cooling system temperature favors additional ice growth, which favors ice chest temperature, which favors more ice, etc. Evidence from features on the earth that permit indirect appraisal of climates in the past times , before instrumental records (i. e. , from thermometers, rainfall green goddess , etc. ) were collected.
