The present thesis aimed to, for the first, deploy dielectric profiling (DEP) to an entire Alpine ice core drilled to bedrock. DEP allows for a non-destructive measurement of an ice core’s complex relative dielectric permittivity at kHz frequencies. Based on the thus obtained dielectric profile of t...
