18O/16O, 2H/1H and 3H measurements on precipitation and air moisture samples from the North Water area ...

From 1972 to 1974 a mesoclimatic study was conducted in the North Water area between north Greenland and Ellesmere Island, with the aim of assessing the influence of this polynya. In support of the climatological and glaciological programme of the North Water Project an isotope study was carried out...

Pour compléter et confirmer les résultats climatologiques et glaciologiques, nous avons développé un programme isotopique, consistant à échantillonner systématiquement les précipitations et la vapeur d’eau atmosphérique à l’île de Coburg, à l’île de Carey et au cap d’Herschel. Les échantillons recueillis à l’île de Coburg entre novembre 1972 et mai 1973 ont déjà été analysés de façon complète: rapport 18O/16O, 2H/1H et teneur en T pour les échantillons de précipitation et rapport 18O/16O pour les échantillons de vapeur d’eau. Les résultats montrent des corrélations remarquables avec la température, bien que les échantillons d’humidité atmosphérique soient affectés du fractionnement isotopique durant la collection. Selon les résultats environ 25 pour cent des précipitations sont d’origine locale. ... Text Coburg island Ellesmere Island Greenland Groenland North Greenland DataCite
