Produktbeschreibung

"Glaciers Store Time" reveals Earth's climate history through the analysis of ancient air trapped in glacial ice. This book explores how ice cores act as time capsules, preserving atmospheric conditions from millennia ago. One intriguing insight is the ability to directly measure past greenhouse gas concentrations, offering a clear record of environmental change. By examining glacial ice, scientists can reconstruct past climate events and gain a deeper understanding of Earth's environmental history.

The book uniquely focuses on the tangible evidence found within glacial ice, contrasting it with indirect climate proxies. It details the mechanics of ice core analysis, examining significant climate events, and connecting past atmospheric conditions to present-day climate trends.

The book progresses systematically, first introducing glaciers, then delving into ice core analysis and climate reconstruction, and finally discussing the relevance of ice core data to current climate change.
