Climate fluctuation

A climate fluctuation is a cyclical change in the climate and is conceptually close to the climate fluctuation . The latter has only a maximum or minimum between two opposing deflections; a series of climatic fluctuations turns into a climatic fluctuation.

The duration of such a fluctuation period is around 100 to 1000 years. Faster climatic fluctuations down to periods of years are also called climatic oscillations .

Climate fluctuations can cause a shift in vegetation zones and influence the settlement behavior of people. They usually occur regionally or hemispherically and therefore rarely have global effects.
