Climate Change Led To The Ruin Of Roman Empire
New research shows that the ruin of Roman Empire may be related to climate warming.While studying the growth rings of old trees, researchers found that climate warming have been connected with many important events in human history,Jewelry such as migration, epidemics and the rise and decline of an empire. They discovered that the period of economic prosperity have happened during warm and humid climate,while dry or changeable climate often invited political turmoil, such as the collapse of Roman Empire .
To identify the links between environmental change and historical events,researchers have studied fossils of over 7200 trees in the past 2500 years.The rise and decline of civilization is generally related to climate change, which is mainly due to supply, agriculture productivity, human health and the effects of internal conflicts.When Rome was thriving in the medieval period,the corresponding weather in summer is warm and humid.Between AD 250 and 600 years,huge climate change went hand in hand with the fall of the Western Roman Empire.When Barbarian Invasion, political instability and economic chaos leading to several provinces of Gaul happen in Roman Empire,the third century was just going through a great drought.
The Swiss Federal Institute scientists who specialize in Forest, Snow and Landscape Jewelry have studied the ancient oak trees in Germany, France, Italy and Austria.Being extremely sensitive to changes of the rainfall,rings of oak and its shape could reflect changes in the environment at that time. By studying the different way of trees' being felling, scientists are trying to collect evidence of all types in environmental change at that time.The significant reduction on the felling of trees between AD 250 and 400 years correspong to the biggest crisis Central Europe was experiencing,when immigration on a large scale, political turmoil, cultural change,unstable socio-economic occured.While an increase in timber harvesting for the construction between the 6th and the 9th century happened to be consistent with socio-economic stability.
Scientists believe that adverse weather may lead to the spread of bubonic Jewelry plague,which greatly reduced the the Europ population by as much as 40% to 60% after the year 1347.It also found that the sharp decline of the temperature in North America witnessed the sudden reduction of settling in Greenland. To some extent,the progress in technology have reduced the modern people's resistance to environmental change.
