Analyses of Two Ice Cores Drilled at the Ice-Sheet Margin in West Greenland [PDF]
, 1988 In 1978 two ice cores were drilled to depths of 46 and 92 m respectively at Camp 3, at the west margin of the Greenland ice sheet. Both core drillings reached bedrock.

Theoretical and Experimental Analysis for Cleaning Ice Cores from EstisolTM 140 Drill Liquid
Applied Sciences, 2021 To reconstruct climate history of the past 1.5 Million years, the project: Beyond EPICA Oldest Ice (BEOI) will drill about 2700 m of ice core in East Antarctica (2021–2025). As drilling fluid, an aliphatic ester fluid, EstisolTM 140, will be used.

IceChrono1: a probabilistic model to compute a common and optimal chronology for several ice cores [PDF]
Geoscientific Model Development, 2015 Polar ice cores provide exceptional archives of past environmental conditions. The dating of ice cores and the estimation of the age-scale uncertainty are essential to interpret the climate and environmental records that they contain.

An improved north–south synchronization of ice core records around the 41 kyr 10Be peak [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2017 Using new high-resolution 10Be measurements in the NGRIP, EDML and Vostok ice cores, together with previously published data from EDC, we present an improved synchronization between Greenland and Antarctic ice cores during the Laschamp geomagnetic ...

Snow-ice contribution to the structure of sea ice in the Amundsen Sea, Antarctica
Annals of Glaciology, 2020 The widespread occurrence of snow-ice formation on the pack ice plays a critical role in the mass balance of Antarctic sea ice. The stable isotope composition, ice texture and salinity of eight ice cores, obtained from the Amundsen Sea during the Oden ...

Continuous measurements of methane mixing ratios from ice cores [PDF]
Atmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2012 This work presents a new, field-deployable technique for continuous, high-resolution measurements of methane mixing ratios from ice cores. The technique is based on a continuous flow analysis system, where ice core samples cut along the long axis of an ...
