International audience CO$_2$ measurements on the EPICA (European Project for Ice Coring in Antarctica) DML ice core in depth levels just below the bubble ice–clathrate ice transformation zone (1230–2240 m depth) were performed. In the youngest part (1230–1600 m), they reveal variations of up to 25...
