Content

You should explain what the Milankovitch Cycles are (there are three of them).  How do they affect climate on the earth?  What features in the past several 100,000 years of climate history on the earth do they help explain?

Writing Quality

Explain the material in your own words - your report should be your understanding and explanation of the material.  Avoid generalites, try to include specific details and examples from the reading section.  The separate sections or paragraphs of your paper should blend together into one seamless coherent report.  Your report should be nearly free of misspelled words and grammatical errors.
