Diffusion of isotopes in the annual layers of ice sheets
Abstract The annual layering in the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets revealed by the b 0 record becomes less distinct with depth because of self-diffusion. However, the calculated diffusion rates are loo slow to explain die observations. It is suggested that the presence of veins of liquid water i...
