Accumulation Rate at Site-J and Dye-2, Greenland

Shallow ice cores were drilled at Site-J, Greenland by Japanese Arctic Glaciological Expedition members in 1989. An accumulation rate value of 42cm of ice/year for the core was obtained by utilizing Laki Eruption reference horizon in 1783 observed by ECM measurement on the core. A reference time sca...

Description
Summary:Shallow ice cores were drilled at Site-J, Greenland by Japanese Arctic Glaciological Expedition members in 1989. An accumulation rate value of 42cm of ice/year for the core was obtained by utilizing Laki Eruption reference horizon in 1783 observed by ECM measurement on the core. A reference time scale calculated by simple summations of ammual accumulation layers agrees reasonably well with the results of ECM, EC and pH measurements for the volcanic event signals on the core. application/pdf journal article
