What reading level is The Coming Ice Age book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Therefore, the drift currents do not all pass through it from the Pacific into the Atlantic. Consequently, a considerable portion of the drifted water turns northward west of Cape Horn, and so forms the Humboldt current. The Agulhas stream, which even now assists in replenishing the South Atlantic with tropical water, would, during the per- fection of a glacial period, with the Cape channel closed, be a much stronger stream than it now obtains with the Cape channel possessing its present enlarg...ed capacity, for the rea- son that the South Atlantic waters would continue as now to be forced eastward by the westerly winds, while they could not be replenished, as they are to-day, directly from the South Pacific. Consequently, the waters of the South Atlantic Ocean would be correspondingly reduced. Such conditions alone would greatly increase the volume of the Agulhas stream at the culmination of a frigid age. There- fore, the work of subduing a frigid period in the southern hem- isphere after the Cape Horn channel was closed would not rest on the Brazil current alone, but also on the great equatorial stream of the Pacific and Indian Oceans.
