One of the events of Holocene close to our time is the occurrence of a glacial period that affected all the areas of earth. This event, famous as the Little Ice Age, happened in various places and over different periods of time. However, all theories introduce the period between early-sixteenth to mid-nineteenth centuries.
The first theory about the cause of this glacial period ascribed this phenomenon to the Sun’s spots through Eddies, but later Robock proved that this age occurred due to volcanic activities and spread of dusts and volcanic ashes in the atmosphere.
