At least, the researchers came to this conclusion Astronomical Crimean Laboratory. Forecast of course disappointing for the Russians and especially for the residents themselves peninsula, but it is based on observations of the Sun, which, according to scientists, it behaves exactly the same as before a small ice age 1645 – 1715 years.
Information about the small ice age of the late seventeenth – beginning eighteenth centuries can be found not only in historical documents, but also in fiction, for example, on painting of the Dutch artist Abraham Hondius “Frozen Thames” (1677 – the date corresponds to the Maunder minimum), a reproduction of which we invite you to see.

Currently, Crimean scientists are trying with accuracy determine when the next small glacial one will capture the peninsula a period that will again hit all of Europe. This will happen, according to their opinion, by about 2050, maybe a little later. Like it’s too early to worry, especially when you consider, the researchers write, that climate change on Earth is affected not only by the sun, but also many other factors. But you need to prepare for this anyway already now…
