A link between an ice age era and a rapid polar shift
W. Woelfli, W. Baltensperger
The striking asymmetry of the ice cover during the Last Global Maximum suggests that the North Pole was in Greenland and then rapidly shifted to its present position in the Arctic…
A correlation between Earth's inclinations and the times of the cold events recorded in Devils Hole climate data
W. Woelfli, W. Baltensperger
The calculated values of Earth's inclinations during the cold events in the 500 kyr climate record of Devils Hole show a correlation: they cluster in the regions around 1 and 2 deg…
An additional planet as a model for the Pleistocene Ice Age
W. Woelfli, W. Baltensperger, R. Nufer
We propose a model for the Pleistocene Ice Age, assuming the following scenario: Between 3 Myr and 11.5 kyr BP a Mars-sized object existed which moved in a highly eccentric orbit.…
Long term behavior of a hypothetical planet in a highly eccentric orbit
R. Nufer, W. Baltensperger, W. Woelfli
For a hypothetical planet on a highly eccentric orbit, we have calculated the osculating orbital parameters and its closest approaches to Earth and Moon over a period of 750 kyr. T…
A possible explanation for Earth's climatic changes in the past few million years
W. Woelfli, W. Baltensperger
The astronomical theory of Milankovitch relates the changes of Earth' past climate to variations in insolation caused by oscillations of the orbital parameters. However, this theor…
