Past and Contemporary Climate Change: Evidence From Earth's Ice Cover

Explore the compelling evidence of climate change through Earth's ice cover in this AGU Charney Lecture. Delve into the research presented by E. S. Mosley-Thompson from the Byrd Polar Research Center and Department of Geography at Ohio State University. Gain insights into both historical and current climate trends as revealed by ice core data and glacial studies. Discover how scientists analyze ice formations to reconstruct past climate conditions and understand ongoing environmental changes. Learn about the critical role of Earth's cryosphere in climate research and its implications for future global climate patterns.
