How does an ice core provide information about earths history?

Ice will captor anything like animals, ash, etc. Let's say a volcanoe went off and ash went everywhere. Then the ash would settle on the ice, then ice would captor it and trap it in the ice. Scientists then can trace when the bomb went off. Ice will build layers over time and you could see the history of Earth.:)

An ice core provides information about Earth's history by capturing and preserving a record of past climate conditions. The ice layers contain air bubbles that trap atmospheric gases, such as carbon dioxide, which can be analyzed to understand past atmospheric composition. Additionally, isotopes of oxygen and hydrogen in the ice can reveal information about past temperatures and climate patterns.
