In the vostok ice core, scientists found that temperature and were closely related.

In the Vostok ice core, scientists found that temperature and carbon dioxide are closely related.

This was stated by Professor Stocker "We found a very close relationship between carbon dioxide and temperature even before 420 thousand years ago,"

Futher Explanation:

The researchers found that carbon dioxide levels were 30 percent higher and methane 130 percent higher than hundreds of thousands of years ago. The rate of increase in carbon dioxide is even 200 times faster than in previous years in the past 650 thousand years.

The Epica team has released the first data. Their last two papers analyzed gas composition and temperature in 650 thousand years ago. This expands the picture of the Antarctic ice core from near Lake Vostok which examined atmospheric conditions 440 thousand years ago.

"We found a very close relationship between carbon dioxide and temperature even before 420,000 years ago," Professor Stocker said. Continued Stocker, the relationship seen in each change between climate periods indicates that carbon dioxide plays an important role in climate regulation.

To be sure, Epica scientists plan to expand their analysis to conditions over a longer period.
