Full description

Metadata record for data from ASAC Project 1236
The dataset will include snow accumulation time series 1980-2000, with major ion chemistry, stable oxygen isotopes.

This file contains concentrations of trace ions in uEq/L for the GD17 ice core, including MSA, Cl, NO3, SO4, NA, K, Mg, and CA. There is also information on the depth of each sample, and on concentrations of hydrogen peroxide.

An updated dataset was provided by Mark Curran on 2026-09-23.
