The causes of past ice ages are mainly attributed to variations in Earth's orbit and tilt known as Milankovitch cycles. These cycles affect the amount and distribution of sunlight Earth receives. Other contributing factors include volcanic eruptions, changes in greenhouse gas concentrations, and feedback mechanisms within the Earth's climate system.

Describe the possible causes of an ice age?
Possible causes of an ice age include changes in the Earth's orbit and tilt, variations in the amount of solar energy reaching the Earth, and volcanic activity emitting aerosols that block sunlight. These factors can lead to a cooling of the climate and the accumulation of ice sheets.
How does ice age form?
The two main causes of ice ages are:reduction in greenhouse gasses in atmospheredimming of the sunThere has been much debate among scientists which of these was the primary cause of different ice ages and which other secondary causes lengthened or shortened them.
How did the ice age change the earth?
The Ice Age had significant impacts on Earth's geography and climate, including the formation of glaciers, ice sheets, and the reshaping of landscapes. It also led to lower sea levels as water was locked up in ice, influencing ocean currents and affecting global climates. Additionally, the Ice Age had a profound effect on the distribution and evolution of plant and animal species.
Will there be another Ice Age in the future?
It is possible that there will be another ice age in the future, but it is expected to occur in hundreds of thousands or even millions of years from now due to natural climate cycles. Human-induced global warming is currently offsetting the cooling effects that would typically initiate an ice age.
How can man cause an ice age?
It is currently not possible for humans to directly cause an ice age. Ice ages are primarily influenced by natural factors such as changes in Earth's orbit and axial tilt over long time scales. While human activities contribute to climate change, including global warming, the extent to which these activities could potentially trigger an ice age remains uncertain.

Is an Ice age possible in New Zealand?

Why is the ice age called the ice age?

How did contitions during the ice age make it possible for human settlement to spread to new areas?
hi
Why you are in an ice age?
We are in an ice age because we have a great thickness of ice at the poles. This is not normal unless we are in an ice age.
