Antifreeze thermal ice core drilling: an effective approach to the acquisition of ice cores
Antifreeze thermal electric drills have a long history of ice drilling in temperate, subpolar and polar glaciers. Shallow, intermediate and deep ice cores have been obtained in Arctic, Antarctic and on high elevation glaciers. Many merits and drawbacks of antifreeze thermal technology have been discovered over the past 25 years. A modified version of the antifreeze thermal electric ice coring d...
متن کاملGlaciological and climatic significance of Hercules Dome, Antarctica: An optimal site for deep ice core drilling
[1] We present glaciological and climatological characteristics of Hercules Dome, Antarctica (86 S, 105 W), which demonstrate its potential as a deep ice core site. Annual layering in dD ratios from a 72 m ice core collected by the US-ITASE 2002 traverse indicate accumulation rates of 0.16–0.20 m/yr ice equivalent over the last 300 years. Age control from stratigraphy seen in the radio-echo sou...
متن کاملCutting ice: nanowire regelation.
Even below its normal melting temperature, ice melts when subjected to high pressure and refreezes once the pressure is lifted. A classic demonstration of this regelation phenomenon is the passing of a thin wire through a block of ice when sufficient force is exerted. Here we present a molecular-dynamics study of a nanowire cutting through ice to unravel the molecular level mechanisms responsib...

متن کاملIn situ photolysis of deep ice core contaminants by Çerenkov radiation of cosmic origin
[1] Ice core contaminants should provide permanent paleoclimatic records if, as it is generally assumed, they remained frozen in place and isolated from sunlight by the reflective overlaying snow layers. The excess CO levels recently detected in 1100–1600 AD Greenland ice core air bubbles relative to their Antarctic counterparts [Haan and Raynaud, 1998] amount, however, to an average production...
