Dust found in the ice gives a record of what was in the air thousands of years ago, whether from volcanic eruptions or human activity, and the isotopic composition of the hydrogen and oxygen molecules in the snow give a record of the temperature of the earth at the time.
«Ice cores contain little air bubbles and, thus, represent the only direct archive of the composition of the past atmosphere,» says Hubertus Fischer, an experimental climate physics professor at the University of Bern in Switzerland and lead author of the study.

The works on display are: 432Hz (2009 - 2014), a wooden shell that contains honeycombs; Vorkuta (2003), a refrigeration chamber where the temperature of -30 °C contrasts with a chair maintained at a constant +37 °C by an internal thermostat; Mindfall (2004 - 2007), a container which contains a chair and tables, on which 21 electric motors turn on intermittently, one after the other, creating a sort of musical composition; Untitled (2003), a small iron room crossed by blasts of hot and cold air channelled into the space by powerful fans; and Sub (2014), a new work specially created for the exhibition at HangarBicocca, an assembly of aluminium and glass display units which the artist originally designed to exhibit her Inner Disorder (1999 - 2001) series of drawings.
Sze studied painting and architecture, and intersected these disciplines to arrive at sculpture, where her formal interest in light, air and movement is coupled with an intuitive understanding of composition, colour and texture.
Yet what we both discovered was the two paintings shared striking similarities in the terms of how the images and the compositions were deployed, particularly with the identifiable use of the monumental black triangular, pyramidal, monolithic structures at the center, which undoubtedly referred to the pyramid on the back of the U.S one dollar bill, while the flying images perhaps obliquely evoked Manifest Destiny's Goddess Columbia floating in mid air, the symbol of America — in any case, the two pictures were covered with smoke and fire.
ii) The oceans appear to vary in the rate at which they release solar energy back to the air which affects atmospheric composition via humidity, clouds and global albedo.
As such; there is always an extra cost of containing such gases as a part of the requirements of environmental policy makers to help control the rise in global temperature, so that the environment is kept at a reasonable composition of the fresh air and dangerous natural gases.
Because of temporal variabilities in source, composition and concentration of SHS, conventional exposure assessment using indices of SHS, as measured in the ambient air or in the body fluids of exposed individuals, at certain times has failed to estimate long - term SHS exposure 10.»
It is part of the one way transmission of solar energy through the Earth system, sun to oceans to air to space (at variable speeds dependant primarily on internal oceanic behaviour, not the composition of the air).
At that moment, the average air composition is 7 years younger than the composition of the air in the atmosphere, not 20 years if it was a simple average.
And the «arbitrary» shift of ice core CO2 data «to match the Mauna Loa data» only proves that he doesn't (want to) understand that the age of the gas composition is (a lot) younger than the age of the ice at closing depth, because of migration of CO2 / air from the atmosphere through the still open pores.
The platform has three distinct components, with the hardware at the heart of it consisting of environmental sensors and a data processing board, which can measure and log temperature, humidity, air composition (CO and NO2), sound levels, and light intensity.
