Om denne e-bog

Ice and Time explores the crucial role of glaciers, polar ice sheets, and frozen environments as unique archives of Earth's history, bridging Earth Sciences, Geography, and History. The book delves into paleoclimate insights gleaned from ice cores. These cores, acting as time capsules, reveal past temperatures and atmospheric compositions, offering invaluable data for understanding climate change and Earth's history. It highlights how ice preserves organic materials and human artifacts, providing glimpses into past ecosystems and human cultures. The book uniquely combines scientific rigor with storytelling in a clear and accessible style. It begins by explaining the formation of ice and then transitions into methods for extracting and analyzing data from ice cores. Major discoveries from frozen environments are investigated, and the challenges of melting ice are considered. By examining the information preserved within ice, Ice and Time not only enriches our understanding of the planet’s past but also informs decisions about its future.
