The different layers of ice can tell us a lot of things. They can tell us how much snow accumulated in a particular season, similar to looking at tree rings. They also contain atmospheric gases trapped in the ice. This gives an indication of the composition of the atmosphere at the time, since the ice can be dated.

How can you tell where one layer ends and another begins in the atmosphere?

Layers in the atmosphere are defined by changes in temperature. The boundary between each layer is known as a pause, where the temperature gradient changes direction. These pauses create distinct boundaries between layers like the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, and thermosphere.
