Glaciological characteristics and carbon dioxide record of ice cores from Antarctica, supplement to: Ahn, Jinho; Brook, Edward J; Mitchell, Logan E; Rosen, Julia L; McConnell, Joseph R; Taylor, Kendrick C; Etheridge, David; Rubino, Mauro (2012): Atmospheric CO2 over the last 1000 years: A high-resolution record from the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) Divide ice core. Global Biogeochemical Cycles, 26(2), GB2027
We report a decadally resolved record of atmospheric CO2 concentration for the last 1000 years, obtained from the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) Divide shallow ice core. The most prominent feature of the pre-industrial period is a rapid ~7 ppm decrease of CO2 in a span of ~20-50 years at ~1600 A.D....
