The Little Ice Age, by the anthropologist Brian Fagan of the University of California at Santa Barbara, describes the plight of European peasants from 1300 to 1850: famines, hypothermia, bread riots and the rise of despotic leaders brutalizing an increasingly dispirited
The Little Ice Age was a period of cooler climate from the 14th to the 19th century, affecting many regions of the world. Learn about the possible causes, such as low sunspot activity, volcanic eruptions, and North Atlantic Oscillation, and the effects on human history and environment.
9 sie 2012 · The Little Ice Age was a period of widespread cooling on Earth that lasted into the 19th century. Some scientists suggest that four massive volcanic eruptions between 1275 and 1300 A.D. triggered the cooling, while others argue that decreased solar radiation was the main factor.
The Little Ice Age was a period of cooler and more variable climate from the 14th to the 19th century, affecting different regions of the world differently. Possible causes include reduced solar output, changes in atmospheric circulation, and volcanic eruptions.
30 sty 2012 · The Little Ice Age was caused by the cooling effect of massive volcanic eruptions, and sustained by changes in Arctic ice cover, scientists conclude. An international research...
20 lut 2024 · The Little Ice Age was a period of several centuries of persistent cold in the Northern Hemisphere, with possible causes ranging from solar activity to volcanism. Learn how people survived the harsh conditions and what lessons we can draw for today's climate crisis.
1 lut 2012 · A study by scientists at the University of Colorado-Boulder found that four tropical volcanoes erupted violently in the late 13th century, darkening the atmosphere and cooling the Earth. The melted polar sea ice also slowed the heat transport from the equator, prolonging the cold period for centuries.
