CLIMATIC ZONES OF THE PLEISTOCENE

International Geology Review, 1959
Although much emphasis has been placed on the effects of Pleistocene ice sheet as the determinant of Pleistocene climate in Europe, only through the combined evaluation of all useful climatic indicators can Pleistocene climatic zones be differentiated.

Climate and Geographical Zones

1986
Climate has a profound influence on living organisms. The geographical distribution of plants and animals, and the nature and intensity of biological processes depend to a great extent on climatic conditions. Climatic change is an important factor in the evolution of the biosphere.

Searching for the Goldilocks zone of climate anxiety

Trends in Cognitive Sciences
Climate anxiety has both positive and negative potential. It can spur action or hinder it, while taxing mental health. The key lies in balance: a Goldilocks zone wherein anxiety motivates without overwhelming. Cognitive processes, including threat and coping appraisals and future-oriented thinking, may help sustain this adaptive equilibrium.

Climate Zones and Land Use

2013
Because of the relationship between latitude and global radiation (Sect. 4.1), the radiation balances of the regions near the equator and the poles are very different. The area between the equator and approximately 40° north and south receives more energy than it returns to space, which means that the radiation balance of these regions is positive ...

Climatic Zones and Periods of Glaciation

Geological Society of America Bulletin, 1929
Introduction The advance of thought concerning the climates of the earlier geological ages was long held in check by various erroneous notions which were the outgrowth of fundamental doctrines of the science, the fallacy of which had later to be proven.
