Three east Antarctic ice cores (Dome B, EPICA-Dome C and Komsomolskaia) give evidence for a uniform dust input to the polar plateau during the last glacial maximum (LGM)/Holocene transition (20 to 10 kyr BP) and the Sr-87/Sr-86 versus Nd-143/Nd-144 isotopic signature of the mineral particles highlig...
