Some of the most important scientific studies on the Earth's ice ages include research on the extent of ice coverage during the last glacial maximum, studies on the rate of ice melt and its impact on sea levels, and investigations into the causes and effects of ice ages on global climate patterns. These studies have greatly contributed to our understanding of Earth's climate history and future climate predictions.

Question was asked on:
