menneidenilmastojen
Menneiden ilmastojen, also known as paleoclimatology, is the scientific study of Earth's past climates. It seeks to understand how the climate system has behaved over geological timescales, from millions to billions of years ago. This field relies on analyzing proxy data, which are natural archives that record past environmental conditions.
Common sources of proxy data include ice cores, which contain trapped air bubbles revealing atmospheric composition
By examining these proxies, paleoclimatologists can identify past climate shifts, such as ice ages, periods of
