Thanks to the perpetu al fall of snow in glaciated regions\, an ancient climate history is prese rved in the glaciers around the world. Ice cores extracted from glaciers r epresent a detailed archive of climate proxies that link to complex geophy sical processes. The reconstruction of the age of the ice at depth is a cr ucial first step for the interpretation of such ice core records.
In this talk I will summarise m y research in the field of ice-core timescales\; from how ice cores are da ted and matched to other paleoclimate archives (like tree rings)\, to how revising timescales is sometimes necessary to correct biases and improve o ur understanding of ice proxies.
