Ask an ice core scientist anything

Hi /sci/ I analyze gases trapped in ice core for a living, including the iconic CO2 and CH4 record. I also have fair knowledge about other proxies in ice core such as water isotopes, chemsitry (borehole temp, dust, volcanic peaks, lead concentration, salts, etc).

AMA. Any question specific to experimental techniques would be appreciated. I acknowledge that eventually the topic will drift to climate change general, I'll try to answer the best I can but I'm no climate modeler
