Where to find 1.5 million yr old ice for the IPICS "Oldest-Ice" ice core [PDF]
The recovery of a 1.5 million yr long ice core from Antarctica represents a keystone of our understanding of Quaternary climate, the progression of glaciation over this time period and the role of greenhouse gas cycles in this progression. Here we tackle

New synthetic fiber armored cable for freezing-in thermal ice probes
A series of new synthetic armored cables were developed and tested to ensure that they were suitable for use with the RECoverable Autonomous Sonde (RECAS), which is a newly designed freezing-in thermal ice probe.

Where is the 1-million-year-old ice at Dome A? [PDF]
Ice fabric influences the rheology of ice, and hence the age–depth profile at ice core drilling sites. To investigate the age–depth profile to be expected of the ongoing deep ice coring at Kunlun station, Dome A, we use the depth-varying anisotropic ...

Antarctic subglacial drilling rig: Part IV. Electrical and electronic control system
In many cases, the efficiency and safety of a drilling project depend on the reliability of the electrical and electronic control system, as the process progresses without visual access of the operator.

Synchronizing ice cores from the Renland and Agassiz ice caps to the Greenland Ice Core Chronology [PDF]
Four ice cores from the Agassiz ice cap in the Canadian high arctic and one ice core from the Renland ice cap in eastern Greenland have been synchronized to the Greenland Ice Core Chronology 2005 (GICC05) which is based on annual layer counts in the DYE‐3, GRIP and NGRIP ice cores.

Development of the JARE deep ice coring system
A deep ice coring system, which is to be used a top the Queen Maud Land ice sheet in 1994-1995 with a plan named "Dome Project", has been developed since 1988.

The SUBGLACIOR drilling probe: hydraulic considerations
Using significant technological breakthroughs and unconventional approaches, the goal of the in situ probing of glacier ice for a better understanding of the orbital response of climate (SUBGLACIOR) project is to advance ice core research by inventing ...
