NEW HORIZONS: MAKING CONNECTIONS

Ice cores and changing places

How does Earth’s cryosphere provide evidence of place changes in the recent and more distant past? Making Connections is a regular column designed to help you make links between A-level topics

As part of your A-level course, you are expected to develop an in-depth understanding of how human and physical processes operate at a range of spatial and temporal scales. This Making Connections supports that requirement by examining what we can learn from traces of historical industrial pollution and past volcanic activity trapped in centuries-old glacier ice.

■ These traces, as we shall see, are often spatially distant from those places where the pollution or volcanic ash were originally produced.
