Palaeoatmospheric records of carbon dioxide and its stable carbon isotope composition ( δ 13 C) obtained from polar ice cores provide important constraints on the natural variability of the carbon cycle. However, the measurements are both analytically challenging and time-consuming; thus only data e...
