Photolysis of pyruvic acid in ice: Possible relevance to CO and CO2 ice core record anomalies

[1] The abnormal spikes detected in some CO and CO2 polar ice core records indicate persistent chemical activity in glacial ice. Since CO and CO2 spikes are correlated, and their amplitudes scale with reported CO/CO2 yields for the photolysis of dissolved natural organic matter, a common photochemic...
