  • Stable Isotope Constraints on Carbon Dioxide and Nitrous Oxide Variations at the Onset of the Last Glacial Period: New Ice Cores from Taylor Glacier, Antarctica

    Creator:
    Menking, James A.
    Abstract:
    New ice cores retrieved from the Taylor Glacier (Antarctica) blue ice area contain ice and air spanning the Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 5/4 transition, a period of global cooling and ice sheet expansion. Chronologies were determined for the ice and air bubbles in the new ice cores by visually matching...

  • Interpreting Climate of the Past from High-Resolution Ice Core Records of Methane

    Creator:
    Lee, James E.
    Abstract:
    Methane is a product of biogeochemical processes which respond to changes in climate. The history of atmospheric methane is recorded by ice cores providing insight into past changes in these biogeochemical processes. This dissertation is comprised of three studies which focus on centennial- and millenial-scale variability of methane from ice...

  • Investigation of Perennial Cave Ice in Lava Beds National Monument

    Creator:
    Rocco, Nicole
    Abstract:
    For many years, scientists worldwide have been using glacial ice to reconstruct and study Earth’s past climates. While the most continuous records we have are from sites near both poles, there is also mid-latitude perennial ice in the form of mountain glaciers and cave ice. Very little is known about...

  • Augmenting and interpreting ice core greenhouse gas records

    Creator:
    Rosen, Julia L.
    Abstract:
    The three studies that comprise this dissertation seek to answer significant questions in paleoclimatology through unconventional applications of ice core greenhouse gas data. These studies involve different gases and span the interval of time between the Last Glacial Maximum and the Industrial Revolution, but are united by their nontraditional use...

  • Carbon cycle variability during the last millennium and last deglaciation

    Creator:
    Bauska, Thomas K.
    Abstract:
    The exchange of carbon on earth is one of the fundamental processes that sustains life and regulates climate. Since the onset of the Industrial Revolution, the burning of fossil fuels and anthropogenic land conversion have altered the carbon cycle, increasing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere to levels that are unprecedented...

  • The late holocene atmospheric methane budget reconstructed from ice cores

    Creator:
    Mitchell, Logan E.
    Abstract:
    Ice cores are considered the gold standard for recording past climate and biogeochemical changes. However, gas records derived from ice core analysis have until now been largely limited to centennial and longer timescales because sufficient temporal resolution and analytical precision have been lacking, except during rare times when atmospheric concentrations...
