Ice Age Temperatures and Geochemistry
Article Abstract:
Recent research indicates that the last ice age was considerably more variable than previously considered. Studies have substantially added to knowledge of the las glacial maximum. These recent advances are based primarily on climate modeling and on geochemical reconstructions of paleotemperatures.

Why the Ice Ages Don't Keep Time
Article Abstract:
The periodicity of earth climate changes, and the reliability of the astronomical or Milankovitch theory of changes in earth's spin axis are being challenged by the non-predictability of ice ages. Two studies are summarized.

The age of the Waiho Loop glacial event
Article Abstract:
Researchers have formed conflicting conclusion about the time relationship between the Waiho Loop glacial event and Younger Dryas climate cooling. Arguments supporting two interpretations of the data are presented.
