Physical analysis of an Antarctic ice core—towards an integration of micro- and macrodynamics of polar ice*
Microstructures from deep ice cores reflect the dynamic conditions of the drill location as well as the thermodynamic history of the drill site and catchment area in great detail. Ice core parameters (crystal lattice-preferred orientation (LPO), grain size, grain shape), mesostructures (visual strat...
