| Summary: | UPDATED VERSION AVAILABLE: please see10.5281/zenodo.7076469 This pageincludes ice drill site information and ice core repository information for select ice cores retrieved between 1958 and 2022. Included data are not representative of all ice cores drilled during this time period, and they are not even representative of all ice core samples collected and maintained by all of the contributing facilities. Data are presented as they were provided by contributing facilities in 2022, when they were used to generate a figure for an article in Past Global Changes Magazine. The data describe ice core drilling sites (latitude, longitude, elevation, site name), ice core samples (bottom depth, bottom age, core diameter,core completion date, corresponding publications), and ice core storage facilities (latitude, longitude, name). Contributing facilities include the following: Alfred Wegener Institute (Germany), Australian Antarctic Division (Australia), Byrd Polar Center - University of Ohio (United States of America), Canadian Ice Core Lab (Canada), Chiba University (Japan), Institute of Environmental Geosciences - University of Grenoble (France), Institute of Low Temperature Science - University of Hokkaido (Japan), Institute of Polar Science and Engineering - Jilin University (China), Karakoram International University (Pakistan), Lanzhou Institute of Glaciology and Geocryology (China), Nagoya University (Japan), National Institute of Polar Research (Japan), National Science Foundation Ice Core Facility (United States of America), New Zealand National Ice Core Facility (New Zealand, Physics of Ice Climate and Earth - University of Copenhagen (Denmark), Polar Research Institute of China (China), Research Institute for Humanity and Nature (Japan), and Tibet University. We are grateful to each of these facilities for contributing details of their ice core collections for this work.
