  • Obliquity is the nature of the axial tilt of the earth i.e 23.5 ° Due to the equator bulge and other properties of the earth.
  • The thermohaline circulation is the global circulation of the waster that is created by the gradient flow of the surface heat and the freshwater influxes.
  • Milankovitch cycles are the effect of the changes in the earth's movements in climatic patterns over a thousands of years period.
