The earth is able to regulate and regulate its temperature
A new study confirmed that the Earth is able to adjust and regulate its temperature over hundreds of thousands of years to keep it within a constant range.
The planet has a "static feedback" mechanism that keeps global temperatures within a stable range and prevents them from oscillating far in either direction over long time scales, according to research by scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
The study notes that Earth is able to regulate its temperature and stability over vast time scales, 100,000 years or so on average, even after massive shifts in climate caused by ice ages, shifts in solar radiation, and intense volcanic activity.
The team behind the new research says these "stabilizing reactions" are part of the reason why Earth has been able to sustain life on it for the past 3.7 billion years or so. These theories have been put forward before, but there is now some direct evidence for them.
