The Earth has repeatedly experienced the greenhouse, icehouse, or snowball intervals within its 4.6 billion years history. The climatic oscillation shows significant variety in tempo and magnitude, which is controlled by the external forcing and internal feedbacks of the Earth’s climate system. Since approximately 35 million yeas ago, the Earth has developed continental icesheets, and we now live in the icehouse world. However, the greenhouse interval without any continental icesheet had been predominant in the long Earth’s history.
