A new 122mm electromechanical drill for deep ice-sheet coring (DISC): 5. Experience during Greenland field testing
ABSTRACT. The Deep Ice Sheet Coring (DISC) drill developed by Ice Coring and Drilling Services under contract with the US National Science Foundation is an electromechanical ice-drill system designed to take 122mm ice cores to depths of 4000m. The new drill system was field-tested near Summit camp i...

The new drill system was field-tested near Summit camp in central Greenland during the spring/summer of 2006.
