about 800,000 years, which is currently in the EPICA cores.
How do scientists learn about the climate in Antarctica thousands of years ago?
Ice cores are useful for scientists who want to learn about the climate in Antarctica thousands of years ago.
What is the differences and simularities of ice cores and rock layers?
ice cores are vertical timelines showing info on Earth's past. Rock layers show when each layer formed that's all I got. hope if helps
What is the rock formation underneath antarctica?
Antarctica is a large continent and as such has a lot of different rock formations incorporating igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks.
Are the jovian planets thought to have cores larger than earth?
Yes, the jovian planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune) are thought to have cores that are larger than Earth. These cores are composed of heavy elements like rock, metal, and possibly icy materials. However, the exact size and composition of these cores are still not fully understood and are the subject of ongoing research.
What are ice cores for climate analysis drawn from?
The cores are drilled from the ice itself - ice sheets in Antarctica and Greenland.

Describe the cores of the gas giants?
The four gas giants are thought to have small, dense cores of metal and rock, but consist mainly of liquid hydrogen and helium.
What is the planet interior of Jovian?
The cores of all four Jovian planets are made of rock, metal, and gasses. The difference between the planets are the layers that surround the cores.
Why is jack hall taking ice core samples from antarctica?
Jack Hall was studying the greenhouse gases in ice cores from Antarctica because runaway greenhouse gases are causing global warming.
