What can ice tell us about global climate change?

This episode addresses how we know what temperatures and concentrations of atmospheric gases were long before humans could record it with modern instrumentation. Ice tells a story about what the environment was like tens to hundreds of thousands of years ago. Here we interview Dr. Dr. Kaden Martin, a scientists interested in major climate shifts over geologic time. Dr. Martin is currently a postdoctoral fellow at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. Dr. Martin graduated from Oregon State University with a Ph.D. in Ocean, Earth, and Atmospheric Sciences and has seven peer-reviewed articles that document the use of ice core data to better understand climate variability across geographic regions and time. In this episode we discuss his most recent paper titled: "Greenland Ice Cores Reveal a South-To-North Difference in Holocene Thermal ...
