The international endeavour to retrieve a continuous ice core, which spans the middle Pleistocene climate transition ca. 1.2-0.9 Myr ago, encompasses a multitude of field and model-based pre-site surveys. We expand on the current efforts to locate a suitable drilling site for the oldest Antarctic ic...
