New modeling of the Vostok ice flow line and implication for the glaciological chronology of the Vostok ice core [PDF]
, 2004 We have used new spaceborne (elevation) and airborne (ice thickness) data to constrain a 2D1/2 model of snow accumulation and ice flow along the Ridge B-Vostok station ice flow line (East Antarctica).

IODP Drilling of the “Shackleton Sites” on the Iberian Margin: A Plio-Pleistocene Marine Reference Section of Millennial-Scale Climate Change [PDF]
Scientific Drilling, 2010 Few marine sediment cores have played such a pivotal role in paleoclimate research as those recovered from the Portuguese Margin, including MD95-2039 to MD95-2042 (hereafter referred to as the “Shackleton sites”) (Fig. 1).

Decadal-interdecadal climate variability over Antarctica and linkages to the Tropics : analysis of ice core, instrumental, and tropical proxy data [PDF]
, 2012 The Antarctic continent contains the majority of the global ice volume and plays an important role in a changing climate. The nature and causes of Antarctic climate variability are, however, poorly understood beyond interannual time scales due to the ...

Agile Sub-Ice Geological (ASIG) Drill development and Pirrit Hills field project
Annals of Glaciology, 2021 A new drilling system was developed by the US Ice Drilling Program (IDP) to rapidly drill through overlying ice to collect subglacial rock cores. The Agile Sub-Ice Geological (ASIG) Drill system is capable of drilling up to 700 m of ice in a continuous ...
