Sonification of the atmospheric carbon record over the Holocene epoch

This piece is part of a collection of sound compositions called Timescales, which sonifies datasets spanning different time scales of the atmospheric carbon record. The Holocene is a geologic epoch which began approximately 11,700 years ago as the last glaciation ended. At the onset of the Holocene, atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations were approximately 265 ppm, and they remained below 280 ppm until the 18th century and the dawn of the industrial revolution. The Holocene composition creates an experience of listening to the stable climate of the Holocene epoch, and hearing the end of the Holocene and the beginning of the Anthropocene.本作品隶属于名为《Timescales》（时标）的声音创作合集，该合集针对横跨不同时间尺度的大气碳记录数据集开展声化处理。全新世（Holocene）是一个地质纪元，始于约11700年前末次冰期结束之际。全新世伊始，大气二氧化碳浓度约为265 ppm，且直至18世纪工业革命发轫之时，该浓度始终维持在280 ppm以下。本全新世声化作品可使听众沉浸式感受全新世纪元稳定的气候状态，并聆听全新世的终结与人类世（Anthropocene）的开端。
