SNOW CHANCE: Study Rules Out Ice Age Hotspot Theory

A long-standing theory that an equatorial belt of warm water fostered life during the earth's Ice Age has been dismissed by a new study. New findings by scientists from Vienna University and the Institute of Technology in Karlsruhe (KIT), Germany, show that the hotspot almost certainly never existed. It has…
