Permanent ice caps have been quite rare in geological history. This new study suggests that's because you need to right combination of paleogeography (which affects weathering rates), exposed lithology (different rocks draw down more/less CO2 as they weather, and plate tectonic configuration (which affects volcanic degassing), all working in the same direction, to get into an icehouse.
