Aftermath of a snowball Earth
JA Higgins, DP Schrag - Geochemistry, Geophysics …, 2003 - Wiley Online Library
Using a simple 3‐box model of the ocean‐atmosphere system, we simulate the cycling of

The Neoproterozoic (1000–540 Ma) glacial intervals: no more snowball earth?
JG Meert, R Van der Voo - Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 1994 - Elsevier
Abstract The Neoproterozoic interval (1000–540 Ma) contains ample evidence for a series of
glacial intervals. These include the 750–700 Ma Sturtian glaciation, the 625–580 Ma …

A fundamental Precambrian–Phanerozoic shift in earth's glacial style?
DAD Evans - Tectonophysics, 2003 - Elsevier
It has recently been found that Neoproterozoic glaciogenic sediments were deposited
mainly at low paleolatitudes, in marked qualitative contrast to their Pleistocene counterparts …

Is there a conflict between the Neoproterozoic glacial deposits and the snowball Earth interpretation: an improved understanding with numerical modeling
The behavior of the terrestrial glacial regime during the Neoproterozoic glaciations is still a
matter of debate. Some papers claim that the glacial sequences cannot be explained with …
