Science - Geology / Art museum exhibit
English term or phrase: depth strata
This is the title of an artwork, an etching. It's an abstract piece that shows different levels of the soil. When I Google "depth strata", I don't get much. References will be appreciated. This is the description of the piece:

In Depth Strata, the artist interprets two types of scientific data: ice penetrating radar (IPR) and ice core samples. Both have become invaluable research tools by providing a record of the earth’s climate. IPR measures the thickness of ice and helps scientists locate the best core samples. Ice cores, drilled out from glaciers and ice sheets, contain tiny bubbles of air, carbon dioxide, and methane trapped over thousands of years. By examining layers of bubbles and sediment, scientists can analyze the steady rise in carbon dioxide since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution.
