Skeptical Real Climate Science
5.1.3 DEPLETION OF CO2 IN SURFACE SNOW

An important finding of Raynaud and Delmas (1977) was the observation that in surface firn (up to 1 m depth) at the Pionerskaya and Vostok stations the concentration of CO2 in the interstitial air was 160 to 240 ppm, respectively, whereas at that time in the atmospheric air this concentration was reported to be 310 ppm. This demonstrates that, even in snow that was not subject to longer firnification and firn-ice transition processes, the CO2 content could have been reduced by up to 150 ppm, i.e. about 48% lower than in the ambient air of the same age. This important field experiment was never repeated in the later CO2 studies.
