[QUOTE="jim mcnamara, post: 5444239, member: 35824"] From wikipedia There is evidence that these kinds of cycles have existed in the far past: and there are climatic cycles that have very long periods like the Milankovitch cycle. These cycles have also been described for other planets - Example Mars: Schorghofer, Norbert 2008. "Temperature response of Mars to Milankovitch cycles". [I]Geophysical Research Letters[/I] [B]35[/B] (18) The idea here is that the axial tilt and the eccentricity of the a planet's orbit "conspire" to change input from the sun in polar regions over long period of time. The period of the Milankovitch cycle has some complex elements with a nice explanation: [URL]http://ossfoundation.us/projects/environment/global-warming/milankovitch-cycles[/URL] [/QUOTE]
