Labels also have special number codes, which represent the following: 1  0 = means minimal hazard. 2  1 = means slight hazard. 3  2 = means moderate hazard. 4  3 = means serious hazard. 5  4 = means severe hazard.
A good way to summarize the paper by Snelling and Matthews is by presenting the timeline given in the article and accompanying poster: AiG Ice Age Timeline. 1  2350 B.C.âNoahs flood. 2  2350 to 2250 B.C.âAntarctica becomes covered by forests, then gets covered by its ice cap.  2250 to 2000 B.C.âIce age on the rest of Earth.
Ice age. An ice age is a period of long-term reduction in the temperature of Earth's surface and atmosphere, resulting in the presence or expansion of continental and polar ice sheets and alpine glaciers. Within a long-term ice age, individual pulses of cold climate are termed glacial periods (or alternatively glacials or glaciations or colloquially as ice age), and intermittent warm periods are called interglacials.
