Simulating the temperature and precipitation signal in an Alpine ice core [PDF]
Accumulation and δ18O data from Alpine ice cores provide information on past temperature and precipitation. However, their correlation with seasonal or annual mean temperature and precipitation at nearby sites is often low.

Novel approach to estimate the water isotope diffusion length in deep ice cores with an application to Marine Isotope Stage 19 in the Dome C ice core [PDF]
Accurate estimates of water isotope diffusion lengths are crucial when reconstructing and interpreting water isotope records from ice cores. This is especially true in the deepest, oldest sections of deep ice cores, where thermally enhanced diffusive ...

Coring of Antarctic Subglacial Sediments
Coring sediments in subglacial aquatic environments offers unique opportunities for research on paleo-environments and paleo-climates because it can provide data from periods even earlier than ice cores, as well as the overlying ice histories ...

Brief communication: The Danish replicate drilling system – results from the first field test [PDF]
We report on the successful test of a new replicate drilling system for ice cores. The test was done in drill fluid, at 140 m depth in the East Greenland Ice Core Project (EastGRIP) borehole in central Greenland.
