During the last glacial, Figure 3 shows the period 20 to 60 kyr BP, the EDML record and EDC record show in general a homogenous behaviour of climatic changes in Antarctica3.

According to Spencer and others (2006), the number density of bubbles formed at the firn/ice transition depends on the grain structure of the ice matrix, especially on the grain
