A hot-water ice-coring drill

A new method of ice-core drilling uses an annulus of hot-water jets to melt out a cylindrical ice core. This lightweight device used in combination with a fast hot-water drill can quickly obtain ice cores from any depth. © 2000 International Glaciological Society. MS received 4 May 1999 and accepte...
