During the Ice Age, glaciers covered the high mountain peaks of East Africa, New Guinea, and Hawaii, certainly indicative of much more precipitation having fallen down as snow at those high elevations (and rain lower) there near the equator, while the Ice Age coasts of the Arctic Ocean were green unto feeding large herbivores such as the woolly mammoth, verdant because the world ocean in the aftermath of Noah’s Flood was on average top to bottom about 80 deg. F., when the Ice Age began.
