Ancient Climate Oscillations

Ancient climate oscillations refer to the natural changes in Earth's climate that have occurred over thousands to millions of years. These fluctuations can be caused by factors like variations in the Earth's orbit, volcanic eruptions, and changes in ocean currents. These cycles have resulted in periods of warming and cooling, influencing ecosystems, sea levels, and species distributions. Understanding these oscillations helps scientists learn how climate systems function and how they may respond to current human-induced climate changes, providing valuable insights into both past and future climate scenarios.
