On the possibility to restore the climatic signal in the disturbed record of stable water isotope content in the old (0.4–1.2 Ma) Vostok ice (Central Antarctica)
In this work we have presented new detailed (with the resolution of 10 cm) stable water isotope (δD and δ18O) profile measured in the central Antarctic Vostok ice core section that contains old ice with the age from 0.4 to 1.2 million years. To interpret these data we have developed a model of molec...
