What's an ice core?

The Daily Show: Ears Edition

An ice core is a cylinder of ice.

They're about four inches in diameter.

Yep.

And we drill them.

The Daily Show: Ears Edition

We use a drill just like you would drilling for oil.

You go down, you bring up a core, and you can drill 100 and 200 feet, or you can drill three miles in Antarctica where we have lots of ice.

Ice is amazing.

I can say that.

I've spent my life studying this stuff.

Ice tells us not just climate, things like temperature from the isotopes in the ice and precipitation by the annual layer thickness.

Meaning in those years.
