Lead concentration changes in Antarctic ice during the Wisconsin/Holocene transition
In order to assess current global lead atmospheric pollution, it is necessary to reconstruct the natural, pre-human atmospheric fluxes of this toxic heavy metal. The time variations of these fluxes over the past 27,000 years have been obtained from the analysis of an Antarctic ice core.
