Scientists found that sea levels rose rapidly 11,700 years ago due to melting ice sheets and sudden lake drainage.

"Such a transition to a glacial state in 10,000 years' time is very unlikely to happen, because human emissions of carbon ...

The new study revealed an "amazing correlation" between Earth's tilt and ice sheet formation, said lead author Stephen Barker. Based on these findings, researchers estimated that the next ice age ...

Earth's last ice age ended around 11,700 years ago and a new study predicts the next one should be 10,000 years away. But the researchers say record rates of fossil fuel burning that are increasing ...

New geological data has given more insight into the rate and magnitude of global sea level rise following the last ice age, ...

A group of scientists think they can now predict when the next ice age could grip Earth, but don't worry, it's not for a very long time. An ice age should begin in about 10,000 years, but its ...

A researcher with UW collaborated on the project to come up with the most precise predictive Ice Age model to date.

The researchers unearthed 427 artefacts, including stone tools and the first ochre pieces- the red-coloured rock used in ...

Earth entered an era marked by successive ice ages and interglacial periods, emerging from the last glaciation around 11,700 years ago. A new analysis suggests the onset of the next ice age could ...

The Radcliffe Wave is a massive, undulating structure filled with dense clouds of gas and dust, stretching across several ...
