Climate Change: Long‚ Medium and Short Term Long term evidence: Type of evidence | Explanation | Reliability | Ice cores – CO2 | CO2 trapped in ice cores. Low concentrations of CO2 occur naturally during glacial periods and high concentrations during interglacial periods (present). 2007 measured 383 parts per million. | The number of CO2 sequences that correlate well with each other suggest it is reliable. | Ice cores – O2 isotopes | Ratio of oxygen 16 to 18 is a good indicator of past sea
