Overview

This project seeks to answer the question, "How cold was Antarctica during the last ice age?" This information will help to predict the magnitude of future warming in Antarctica due to human emissions of heat-trapping gases, with implications for the stability of Antarctic ice sheets and sea level in the next 50 to 100 years. The proposed method uses a new "gas thermometer" bas…
