Continuous Dust Profile (230 ka) from the EPICA Dronning Maud Land Ice Core - First Results
The European Project for Ice Coring in Antarctica (EPICA) aims at reconstructing past climate and environmental conditions from two deep ice cores in Antarctica. The two cores are drilled at Dome C (EDC, 75°06' S, 123° 21'E, 3233m a.s.l.) and in Dronning Maud Land (EDML, at 75°00'S; 0...
