Drill head and ice core from a depth of 2874 metres - this section was drilled in November 2002

The longest ice-core record of climate history ever obtained has hugely extended the detailed history of Earth's atmosphere, and shows that levels of greenhouse gases really do march in lockstep with changes in temperature.
