Is Weather A Pattern? Meteorologists refer to repeating weather as a weather pattern. It is common for the weather to become locked in a repeating pattern. The same weather will occur day after day. Then suddenly one day the weather changes and for example dry weather for 2 weeks becomes rainy weather for a week.
How Can Scientist Determine The Milkanovich Cycles? Milankovitch cycles include the shape of Earth’s orbit (its eccentricity), the angle that Earth’s axis is tilted with respect to Earth’s orbital plane (its obliquity), and the direction that Earth’s spin axis is pointed (its precession). What are the Milankovitch cycles and about how often do they cycle?
How Frequently Do Milankovitch Cycles Occur? Subsequent research confirms that they did occur at 41,000-year intervals between one and three million years ago. But about 800,000 years ago, the cycle of Ice Ages lengthened to 100,000 years, matching Earth’s eccentricity cycle. How many Milankovitch cycles have there been? Milankovitch’s calculations and charts, which were published
