Ice sheets record, affect, and predict climate change

My interest in climate research began when data from the Greenland Ice Sheet Project 2 (GISP2) ice core were presented in my Intro to Geology class. The data revealed very rapid changes in climate. Here I am at the drill site near Summit Station.
