Major ions were analysed in firn and ice cores located at Fimbul Ice Shelf (FIS), Dronning Maud Land – DML, Antarctica. FIS is the largest ice shelf in the Haakon VII Sea, with an extent of approximately 36500km2. Three shallow firn cores (about 20m deep) were retrieved in different ice rises, Kupol...
