We measured the spatial variability of Cl(-), Na(+), SO(2-)4, NO(-)3 and (7)Be concentrations in snow cover along the traverse route from S16 to Dome Fuji station in east Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica. The concentrations of Cl(-) and Na(+) at the coast exponentially decreased with distance from the...
