Black carbon aerosols (BC) emitted by fires in the Southern Hemisphere (SH) are transported to Antarctica and preserved in the Antarctic ice sheet. Recent efforts to develop ice core records of BC deposition to Antarctica show variability in BC over a broad range of time scales. The ~ monthly-resolu...
