Stable isotope constraints on Holocene carbon cycle changes from an Antarctic ice core [1]

Antarctic ice cores can be used to reconstruct atmospheric CO2 concentrations, revealing significant changes during the Holocene epoch which started 11,000 years ago. Here, a highly resolved delta13C record is presented for the past 11,000 years from measurements on atmospheric CO2 trapped in an Antarctic ice core.
