Miocene climate recorded in Greenland cave

Field assistant, Chris Blakeley, admires delicate hoar frost crystals inside a cave located in permafrost in North Greenland. Inside the cave are mineral deposits known as speleothems, which preserve climate and environmental records indicating a warmer Arctic during the Late Miocene. Photo by Robbie Shone.
