Glacial periods
Los periodos glaciales son un conjunto de fenómenos de bajísimas temperaturas, que se han presentado en grandes zonas de la Tierra en varios momentos de la historia geológica. Consisten en fuertes y duraderas bajadas de la temperatura, que traen consigo la expansión de hielo continental, casquetes polares y glaciares.
