Severinghaus describes the recent discovery of 2.7 million year old ice to @mckelmer for @Scripps_Ocean: "That core...was all broken up. It’s like in archaeology when you find pieces of broken pottery you’re trying to put back together." https://scripps.ucsd.edu/news/scripps-scientists-friendly-race-among-nations-find-worlds-oldest-ice-record-time">https://scripps.ucsd.edu/news/scri...
