These data are obtained from an ice core drilled in 2018 at Little Dome C, Antarctica. The core was analysed at 2-cm resolution on the first 42 meters, according to Gautier et al. 2016 (doi:10.5194/cp-12-103-2016), to obtain the sulfate profile and evidence the main volcanic horizons. ... : Funding:This publication was generated in the frame of Beyond EPICA.

One 100-meter ice-core was collected during the 2017/2018 summer campaign in Antarctica, at Little Dome C (~40 km of Concordia Station, 122.469022735°E, 75.2026653874°S), with the initial goal of drilling a pre-hole for the fast probe Subglacior. ...
