Abstract (EN)

The distinction between the effects of both natural and anthropogenic elements, which are in very complex relations with each other in the climate mechanism and in its change, is quite difficult. This difficulty leaves some shortcomings in assessing the boundaries of today's human-induced climate change and its future impacts. In addition, the studies carried on by different disciplines about climate change, usually evaluated by only one factor, thus relations between all factors can't be explained properly, this fact, complicate to understanding of climate changes components working mechanism as a whole. For this reason, it is very important to address the short and long term natural factors and processes that cause climate change and determine the effects they produce. From this point of view, the important climate change processes of these natural factors, which have been dealt with separately by various mechanisms of natural factors that cause climate change, have been examined in the time period from Precambrian to today. As a result of the study, it has been determined that many other natural variables and factors are involved in the process even though it is a main factor triggering the climate change process throughout the world geological history. Thus, they have produced significant changes in the severity and duration of climate change. In line with this, it was concluded that the climate change processes not only due to a single reason but also a broader view of the natural and anthropogenic factors of all climate elements could lead to a better understanding of the climate change processes and better predictability of the results.
