Milankovitch: orbital calculations of insolation

Synthesized calculations of how orbital geometry changes the seasonal and latitudinal distribution of solar radiation and related them to ice-age questions.

What is recorded here?

Synthesized calculations of how orbital geometry changes the seasonal and latitudinal distribution of solar radiation and related them to ice-age questions.

Source-linked catalogue note. A detailed explanatory guide has not yet been prepared for this entry.

Scientific scope

This is the 1941 Canon, built over decades. Earlier orbital-climate hypotheses and later empirical validation and chronology are separate.
