Sturtian glaciation
The Sturtian glaciation was a major global ice age during the Neoproterozoic, when extensive ice sheets may have covered much of Earth’s surface in one of the most severe glacial events in the planet’s history.
-
B.
Huronian glaciation
The Huronian glaciation was one of Earth's earliest and longest ice ages, occurring over 2.4 billion years ago and likely linked to the Great Oxidation Event and major climatic shifts.
-
C.
Rhyacian Period
The Rhyacian Period is a geologic time interval in the early Proterozoic characterized by significant crustal growth, widespread metamorphism, and some of the earliest known large-scale glaciations.
-
D.
Cenozoic glaciations
Cenozoic glaciations are a series of major ice age cycles during the Cenozoic Era that saw extensive growth and retreat of continental ice sheets, profoundly shaping Earth’s climate and landscapes.
-
E.
Last Glacial Maximum
The Last Glacial Maximum was the most recent period in Earth’s history when ice sheets reached their greatest extent, dramatically lowering sea levels and reshaping global climates and ecosystems.
