ReneDuring an ice age, the Earth's surface experiences changes in the form of advancing and retreating glaciers, the expansion of polar ice sheets, and the lowering of sea levels due to the transfer of water to glaciers. These changes can lead to the sculpting of landscapes through erosion and the formation of land bridges due to changes in sea levels.

During the last ice age how much of the earths surface was covered by glaciers?
30%
How does absorption of solar energy by the earths surface changes in the ice age?
During an ice age, the increased presence of ice and snow on the Earth's surface can lead to more solar energy being reflected back into space, rather than being absorbed by the surface. This can contribute to cooling temperatures and potentially prolonging the ice age.
How much of the Earth was covered in ice during the Ice Age?
During the Ice Age, approximately 30 of the Earth's surface was covered in ice.
During the last ice age how much of the earth's surface was covered by glaciers?
30%
Glacial periods are caused by?
changes in Earth's orbit and tilt, which affect the amount of sunlight reaching different parts of the Earth's surface. These changes lead to the reduction of temperature and the accumulation of ice, resulting in glacial periods.
