Spatial and temporal variability in snow accumulation can have a significant impact on
interpretation of ice cores, particularly for chemical species that show a strong seasonal …

Inversion of chemical records archived in ice cores to atmospheric concentrations requires a
detailed understanding of atmosphere‐to‐snow‐to‐ice transfer processes. A unique year …

Of the main atmospheric oxidants, only hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is preserved in polar ice
cores. To make use of the peroxide record, however, requires a quantitative understanding …

Abstract The concentrations of 7 Be, 210 Pb and major ions have been measured in acrosol
and snow samples collected near Summit, Greenland (72° 20′ N, 38° 45′ W) in the …

Our ability to infer past atmospheric concentrations of hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2) and
formaldehyde (HCHO) from concentrations measured in. polar firn and ice cores is limited by …

As part of NASA's Program for Arctic Regional Climate Assessment (PARCA), extensive ice
core measurements of annual net water‐equivalent accumulation have been made recently …

Quantitative interpretation of ice core chemical records requires a detailed understanding of
the transfer processes that relate atmospheric concentrations to those in the snow, firn, and …

Three 2‐m deep snowpits sampled at South Pole in 1994 provide detailed (2‐cm resolution)
profiles of the concentrations of soluble ionic species for the period 1987–1994. The most …

Newly measured time series of net water‐equivalent accumulation from ice cores are
reported for 11 sites located near the 2000‐m contour of the Greenland Ice Sheet. Many of …

Snow-accumulation rates are known to be sensitive to local changes in ice-sheet surface
slope because of the effect of katabatic winds. These topographic effects can be preserved …
