Overview
The Ice Core Paleoclimate Reconstruction Group has participated in the analysis and drilling of ice cores from the various Antarctic sites shown on the above map. Each of the sites on the image is clickable and contains a brief summary of our results with selected references or the status of our ongoing analyses. The article referenced below summarizes the high resolution Antarctic ice core histories from Siple Station and South Pole Station and places them within the context of other contemporaneous Antarctic records.
