Orbital-scale Climate Variability

Orbital-Scale Climate Variability is a paleoclimatological phenomenon characterized by long-term fluctuations in Earth's climate system driven by periodic changes in solar insolation resulting from variations in the planet's orbit, axial tilt, and precession, distinguishing it from shorter-term climate variability mechanisms.
