I asked the following question already at Earth Science StackExchange. If you know better places to ask (than here and there) please give me a hint.

In ice cores a lot of data are measured and analyzed and can be plotted versus depth, for example

- age of layers
- thickness of layers
- concentration of spurious gases
- concentration of solids
- delta signals

I am looking for sources where I can find - ideally at one place - the curves that give the values of these quantities versus ice core depth, e.g. like in this example.

Is there possibly an interactive website where I can even zoom into such curves?

Finally I'd like to know, if there is one set of "equations" which give the estimated (surface?) temperatures and carbon dioxide concentrations as well as the amount of precipitation as functions of the measured data. I imagine such equations must exist - or are they too complicated to write down? (The equations should also give the error range! Side question: Does the error range decrease with time (i.e. increase with depth)?)

So what you seek is someone's totally invalid "conclusions" drawn from proxy data so you can generate your own brand of wild speculation about the past. Great. I presume you want to extrapolate your incredible work of fiction about one square meter of real estate to the entire surface of the earth ... and polish it with the logos of NOAA and NASA in the upper corner.

Am I close?

hpstricker wrote:The equations should also give the error range! Side question: Does the error range decrease with time (i.e. increase with depth)?)

All proxy speculation places the error outside usable bounds. I recommend you brush up on your statistical math.

You'll probably be better off looking for papers that have been published. Hopefully this helps you out some.

Ice cores are not usable to speculate the temperature at any point in the past. It is not possible to measure the temperature of the Earth, even today. There are simply not enough thermometers.

Ice cores can't measure the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere at any time in the past either. We still can't measure the global CO2 concentration today. There are not enough stations.

You gotta understand that heat "is" and is a "flow". The more "is" that "flows" influences both microbes and atmospheric gasses.

Unfortunately that's true. The NOAA simply can't do that. However, the sad thing is that many people still think they can.

Pretty much why I view climate models, as a nerd's video game. They just play with the numbers, until the computer spits out something 'cool', and interesting. The IPCC then searches for proxies and analog data, that seem to support the model output. Sort of backward, but sells well to politicians and the fear mongering media.

A lot of areas, will drain lakes, to clean up some of the muck, and crap, that collects on the bottom over the decades. You could probably dig up dozens of photos of dry lakes and rivers being cleaned up. And there will be also plenty of photos of the same rivers and lakes overflowing.

Let's just say that a picture of the creek that flows by my house (at the present moment) would have hardly any water in it, as we've been hard pressed for rain this Summer... However, after one heavy rainfall, the water would be overflowing the banks and flooding the nearby land.

I can't be sure if anything is happening...

They are still waiting for their prophecy to be fulfilled. Just hasn't happened yet. In the words of my Jewish neighbor, the Torah says "some guy" walked on the shore. Who to believe? You or the Jew?

Am sorry but I can't prove that Jesus died on the cross so we have to say that never happened. Your thoughts. Proof is required and yet I always thought that Christians had faith. They don't.


This might be why Christians require proof of the future according to science, it's about control.

You'll probably be invited to post as OneSuperSaviorForReal on freejoy.com before heading out to the book tour and the lecture circuit.

How would surface temperature be indicated in the ice?

I don't know a lot about it. The air bubbles being trapped being measured I get as well as the thickness of layers.

2 different isotopes of oxygen, 16 and 18 will vary depending on temperature. Also different microbes found in ice core samples will also help to understand how warm or cold it was at that time. If you have some spare time, it is about how different microbes help to show different climates. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4009855/
This information is compared to core samples taken from the ground and the seafloor itself. Radiocarbon dating can help to align various samples to show a broader picture within a certain time frame.

Why would any rational adult believe that a chemical composition can tell you about its temperature ... in the distant past? Oh, that's right, when you're omniscient you can claim that you got the "information" from anything you like. Got it. I'm just surprised you didn't go with the standard "we have satellites."

The thickness of the layers is determined by the amount of precipitation (and deformation due to the weight of the ice above it). Why would any rational adult believe that an amount of precipitation could possibly tell you the temperature of the precipitation when it fell ... in the distant past? Oh, that's right, when your omniscient you can claim that you got all the "information" from anything you like. Got it.

Nope. Radiometric dating was such a breakthrough because such decay is not affected by either temperature, pressure or humidity.

Ice is impermeable, and never melts... Microbes never evolve, and unaffected by temperature, or being sealed in ice for hundreds of thousands of years. Covid, is one of those microbes, released into the wild, by climate scientist. They blame China, to distract from their own mistakes. Russia is a partner in the ice core harvesting, can't pick on them. Guess they never imagined digging up viable, hazardous biologics, long forgotten...

@tmiddles, as it gets hotter, more of the oxygen in the atmosphere will be the isotope
Oxygen - 18. And when ice crystals are formed it's likely that they trap other things inside. Take a snow flake, it is not pure water but traps impurities in it. This would be how dust, microbes and gasses make it into ice cores. When snow piles up and it becomes colder, then snow becomes ice. I've seen this in Yekaterinburg, Russia. There in the winter you could be walking on a layer of ice 6 inches thick.
When it's cooler, there is less water vapor in the atmosphere. This would explain why there would be more dust in the air. A good rain storm helps to cleanse the air of particulates. Basically during an ice age, it might get a lot of dust in the air. At the same time sea levels would be low compared to what we have today.

You're welcome. I noticed they also included natural variability. I think it is possible for us to influence warming. I go more with hydrocarbons and ODSs.
The oceans are very good at absorbing UV radiation and the Gulf Stream and the Pacific Ocean both flow into the Arctic Ocean. The Arctic Ocean has a cold water outflow through the Labrador Current west of Greenland. And that in turn can keep sea ice from forming while helping to melt glaciers. Then there's the feedback mechanism of a rebounding tectonic plate.

Cold water comes out of the Arctic you say? That must mean there is cold water in the Arctic. Can you support your assertion?

I don't really understand how anyone can determine that something is wrong. This is our first inter-glacial period. We have known, that long before the burning of mass quantities, there were weather extremes. Weather changes with the seasons. Weather changes from one day to the next. It was hot and sunny on this day, one year ago. Doesn't mean it's going to be hot and sunny today. Although, this is Florida...

@tmiddles, the cold Labrador Current flows through Baffin Bay. The current starts as a part of the Arctic Ocean and flows from west to east along Canada then goes through the Queen Elizabeth Islands. This helps the North Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation to go from the surface to the sea floor. This is what allows for warm water from both the Gulf Stream in the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean http://kotz.org/2021/05/06/warming-pacific-waters-likely-adding-to-arctic-sea-ice-loss-study-finds/ to flow into the Arctic.
And if you consider that 93% of the heat associated with climate change is found in water, that suggests something other than CO2. This is why I am willing to consider hydrocarbons and ODSs.

There was warming long before burning, in mass quantities. We really have no idea about the details or the warming, because there was no written language for much of it. Then of course the writings with the yellow snow, melted, and were lost. Surprised no fragments were ever discovered in ice core samples.

Humans tended to not live where there was accumulating ice. There weren't many humans where we currently drill to "write" their memoires into the ice cores for posterity.

I grew up in Oregon, rained all the time, winters often brutal. I believed the Ice Age scare of the 1970s, as it really did seem like the cold would never end. It was traumatizing, and as an adult, I was in a hurry to move to sunny Florida. And been content ever since. Well, until the same ****s, started preaching global warming, rising sea levels, more frequent, a stronger hurricanes... Scarier than a Norwegian massage parlor. The offer of a 'happy ending', but no clear sigh of gender. Probably a woman, is good enough for the massage...

I'm glad the global warming, is only happening in the democrat states. Florida is fine, low 90s. 88 F right now... Humidity is a little high, feels hotter, but still not hell fire like out west.

In 2019, there had been 3 solid rainy seasons in CA.

But that was after maybe almost 10 years of drought since 2006.

In 2019, lots of pundits started declaring an end to the drought. But past 2 years looks like the drought is back with a vengeance.

I love the desert weather. It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood. We're not out of water... yet...

I sometimes feel sorry for these guys. They just don't understanding how interesting the Earth is. I've known for a while that we need to improve desalination. Economies can adapt.
From a scientific perspective, as water tables drop in the West, outgoing solar radiation has a longer wave length. This keep it in the atmosphere longer. And this in turn increases the "greenhouse effect". But these guys don't know enough about science to understand that.


p.s., when I lived in Mesa (a suburb of Phoenix) I used to go for rides on my 10 speed bike out into the desert all the time. I really did enjoy it. It was actually quite relaxing.

Plenty of water from the Pacific if you can desalinate it...

Is that cuz dry land is less reflective?

Nearly half our potable water in Perth comes from a desalination plant.There is also one in Binningup that supplies Bunbury

Yeah, democrat science, is simply consensus. With the proper marketing an politics, pretty much any stupid thing, can be accepted science. Actual science isn't what's popular, trendy, or requires faith.

The farmers and ranchers are. Many of those crops are being abandoned, and they are giving up and moving out of the SOTC.

It's pretty grim looking driving through there now.

The cause is not climate change (whatever THAT is!). It's simply that the SOTC doesn't collect the water it gets.

There is no such thing as 'outgoing solar radiation' from Earth. Earth is not the Sun.
Frequency does not change the speed of light.

You deny science.

Does everyone here forget that clouds forming from evaporation over the Pacific, moving over the land and raining or snowing IS desalination?
