Paleoclimatic reconstructions in Antarctica and in the Mediterranean
Paleoclimatic reconstructions in Antarctica
Polar ice sheets represent precious natural archives of global environmental and climate history. Their study provides significant and detailed information on past climate and atmosphere changes, on forcing factors and feedback processes. Ice core records help scientists understand the context of present changes and predict future trends. ENEA participates in major international research projects on ice coring in Antarctica.
