| 英文摘要: |
| This commentary synthesizes recent advancements in understanding Earth’ s orbital variations and their influence on climate and ecosystem dynamics. Barker et al.[1] elucidated the distinct roles of precession, obliquity, and eccentricity in driving 100 000-year glacial cycles over the past 900 000 years. Cao et al.[2]quantified the contribution of orbital forcings to contemporary warming (approximately 11. 50% since 1837) and projected a short-term warming phase followed by a cooling trend up to 2050, though this trend is insufficient to offset anthropogenic greenhouse gas effects.Building on Mao et al.[3 - 4], we propose the theory that climate (weather) and ecosystem changes at different scales within Earth’ s interior represent intrinsic responses of Earth’ s internal systems to external orbital dynamic changes. Although orbital influences are subtle, they persistently regulate solar radiation distribution, seasonal rhythms, and extreme events, thereby impacting agriculture,biodiversity, and climate policy. We advocate for interdisciplinary coupled models that integrate orbital parameters with other forcings to enhance multi-scale predictions and support global environmental governance. |
