Snow/Firn Chemistry from NW Greenland

Snow chemistry data collected along traverses in spring 2013 and 2014 from the NW sector of the Greenland ice sheet, including both soluble ions and black carbon. In 2013, approximately 550 samples, collected at 25 sites, with sampling at 3 cm vertical resolution targeting the uppermost 21 cm of sno...
