| Summary: | Decades of ice core research have resulted in unique isotopic data documenting changes in Greenland temperature and ice sheet evolution over the last 130,000 years. We present here a brief overview of the ice core drilling history in Greenland, the progress in the development of deep ice cores chronologies and how Greenland ice cores can bring information on past climate variations from the Last Interglacial to the last millennium and present day, including rapid variations like Dansgaard-Oeschger events. The evolution of the Greenland ice sheet in relation with the global climate system is also investigated. |
