it's been a while since I have read on this, so my memory is a flagging a bit -- this data depends primarily on ice cores -- CO2 that is trapped in the ice?? One thing that I am interested in is how reliable is that -- when dissolved gases are frozen are they, in fact, locked in the ice -- does the model include some "migration" over time?? -- I'm not a chemist, so my question may be a bit stupid. Another question I have relates to the incorporation of dissolved gases -- other than just relative concentrations in the air are there other factors that influence the amount incorporated? And what about variations of concentrations in the atmosphere versus those near the ground -- when temperatures as a whole are lower or higher?? One part of the "politically correct" portion of the curriculum that I must include in my Physics class is issues of environment and energy. This might be a good research project -- heck, global warming has a ton of assumptions -- each of which could make an interesting literature search. Maybe I should just get my students to do it ... it would be a great exercise!! I am still suspiscous of that graph ...
