A new study indicates that variations in Antarctic sea-ice may have played a significant role in lowering atmospheric carbon dioxide (C02) during the last ice age. This study makes progress towards unraveling the mysteries of past climate changes a necessary step for predicting future climate.

The study by Britton Stephens, a University of Colorado researcher at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Climate Monitoring and Diagnostics Laboratory in Boulder, Colo., (formerly of Scripps), and Ralph Keeling of Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the ...
