The Milankovitch mechanism links climatic change with changes in the orientation of the Earth in its orbit around the Sun. According to Milankovitch theory (Crowley... [Pg.62]

Some of the observed data do not confirm the description of cycles of glaciation by the Milankovitch mechanism (this refers, in particular, to the data on 6lsO in a vein of calcite at Devil s Hole in Nevada, which testify to the antiphase nature of cycles of glaciation). [Pg.63]
