An 83 000-year-old ice core from Roosevelt Island, Ross Sea, Antarctica
In 2013 an ice core was recovered from Roosevelt Island, an ice dome between two submarine troughs carved by paleo-ice-streams in the Ross Sea, Antarctica. The ice core is part of the Roosevelt Island Climate Evolution (RICE) project and provides new information about the past configuration of the W...

In 2013 an ice core was recovered from Roosevelt Island, an ice dome between two submarine troughs carved by paleo-ice-streams in the Ross Sea, Antarctica. The ice core is part of the Roosevelt Island Climate Evolution (RICE) project and provides new information about the past configuration of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) and its retreat during the last deglaciation. In this work we present the RICE17 chronology, which establishes the depth-age relationship for the top 754m of the 763m core. RICE17 is a composite chronology combining annual layer interpretations for 0-343m (Winstrup et al., 2019) with new estimates for gas and ice ages based on synchronization of CH4 and delta O-18(atm) records to corresponding records from the WAIS Divide ice core and by modeling of the gas age-ice age difference.
