Dating and Paleoenvironmental Studies on Ancient Ice in the Dry Valleys, Antarctica
Abstract: This project studies ancient ice buried in the Dry Valleys of Antarctica. The ice, which may approach ten million years in age, will be dated using argon and uranium radioisotope techniques. High-risk work, if successful it will offer the first and perhaps only samples of the Earth's...
