Antarctic surface temperature and elevation during the Last Glacial Maximum

The Antarctic Vostok ice core provided compelling evidence of the nature of climate, and of climate feedbacks, over the past 420,000 years. Marine records suggest that the amplitude of climate variability was smaller before that time, but such records are ...

The Vostok core provides the longest ice record of past climatic and environmental conditions, extending back to the interglacial Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 11, around 400 kyr ago. The MIS 11 information obtained from different time series at Vostok, namel ...

Air trapped in ice core bubbles provides our primary source of information about past atmospheres. Air isotopic composition (15N/14N and 40Ar/36Ar) permits an estimate of the temperature shifts associated with abrupt climate changes because of isotope frac ...
