The expansion of the Scythians across Central Asia was in response to a climate change that made the Steppes cooler but wetter ca. 850 BC. Being wetter made for more grass growth, despite the cooler temperatures.
I've used this as part of an argument that there were internal migrations in India at the same time in response to warmer, drier conditions.
