Ice core site selection attempt on the Mt. Logan summit plateau, Yukon, 2021-2022
Ice cores provide critical archives of past climate change and have directly led to our modern understanding of climate change and its drivers and consequences. Selecting an ice core site is difficult and requires careful study and site selection in order to achieve a useful paleoclimate record. Gro...

Ice cores provide critical archives of past climate change and have directly led to our modern understanding of climate change and its drivers and consequences. Selecting an ice core site is difficult and requires careful study and site selection in order to achieve a useful paleoclimate record. Ground penetrating radar systems are able to image the internal stratigraphy of glaciers as well as measure overall glacier thickness, thereby permitting the selection of an optimal ice coring site. In this project, we use ground penetrating radar profiles collected in 2021 and 2022 to select the drill site for the 2022 Mt. Logan ice core. The profiles included here determined the drill site for this new ice core that will likely provide the longest and highest elevation ice core record in continental North America. |
