Extending the ice core record beyond half a million years [PDF]
Ice cores have been a crucial source of information about past changes in the climate and atmosphere. The Vostok ice core from Antarctica has provided key global change data sets extending 400,000 years in the past [Petit et al., 1999], while Japanese ...

The Second Deep Ice Coring at Dome Fuji, Antarctica.
The second deep ice coring project was carried out at Dome Fuji, Antarctica. Following the pilot hole drilling in 2001, deep ice core drilling was conducted for four years from the 2003/2004 austral summer season, reaching a depth of 3035.22 m in January

Ice drilling allows scientists studying glaciers and ice sheets to gain access to what is beneath the ice, to take measurements along the interior of the ice, and to retrieve samples. Instruments can be placed in the drilled holes to record temperature, pressure, speed, direction of movement, and for other scientific research, such as neutrinodetection.

Koci drill for drilling in ice, sand and rock: drill requirements, design, performance, difficulties [PDF]
AbstractA new man-portable drill designed to perform in ice with entrained sand and rock has been built. Designated the ‘Koci drill’, it was first used on rock-covered glaciers in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica, during the 2006/07 field season. This drill is designed to be disassembled into component parts no heavier than 30 kg (not including the ...

The impact of leukocyte‐associated RNA retention on platelet RNA‐based cancer detection
Platelets carry RNA signals that may help detect cancer, but platelet samples can also retain RNA from white blood cells. We found that this retained white blood cell signal did not significantly affect machine learning cancer classification, suggesting that the cancer‐related RNA signal in platelets is largely independent of leukocyte‐associated RNA ...

A New Paradigm for Ice Core Drilling [PDF]
The search for answers to questions about the changing climate has created an urgent need to discover past climate signatures archived in glaciers and ice sheets, and to understand current ice sheet behavior. Recognizing that U.S. scientific productivity in this area depends upon a mechanism for ensuring continuity and international cooperation in ice ...
