A linkage between the isotopic responses to climate change appears to exist between ice cores from the Upper Fremont Glacier and the Quelccaya Ice Cap (14 S, 71 W, Peruvian Andes, South America). Although the resolution and dating of the Upper Fremont Glacier ice-core records are less than those from the South American site, three distinct climate-related features seem preserved in both sets of records.
