Occurrence and stability of glaciations in geologic time /

Earth is characterized by episodes of glaciations and periods of minimal or no ice through geologic time. Using the linear energy balance model (EBM), nonlinear EBM with empirical ice sheet schemes, the general circulation model coupled with an ice sheet model, this study investigates the occurrence...
