The D.C. conductivity of natural ice generally shows a strong correlation with the acidity of the meltwater sample. This method was successfully applied by Hammer (1) to detect debris of volcanic eruptions recorded in Greenland ice cores. In this paper we study several conductivity profiles for anta...
