Dronning Maud Land Ice Core Chemistry Data, Version 1

Dataset Identification:

Resource Abstract:
This data set consists of chemistry data obtained from a shallow core in Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica. Major ion concentration values (Na, Mg, Ca, Cl, NO3, SO4, MSA) were analyzed from the 20 meter ice core, which was drilled during the austral summer 1991-1992.
