The data consists of carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide concentrations measured in the air trapped in bubbles, and their isotopes. Oxygen isotopes of air and ice, dust concentrations, and ancillary stratigraphic information used for dating the ice is also included. Version Description: This outcrop of old ice in the Taylor Glacier ablation zone allows much larger samples to be taken than are available from ice cores. For example, the carbon-14 content of atmospheric methane in the past is of value in understanding possible methane hydrate release to the atmosphere, but it requires 1 ton of ice per sample. Thus horizontal ice cores permit the first measurements of this tracer prior to the advent of direct atmospheric sampling in the 1950s. The age of the outcropping ice ranges from 8 kyr to 130 kyr.NSIDC > National Snow and Ice Data Centerhttp://nsidc.orghttpcustodianNSIDC > National Snow and Ice Data Centerhttp://nsidc.orghttpdistributorNSIDC_AGDC > NSIDC Antarctic Glaciological Data Centerhttps://nsidc.org/data/agdc/httpscustodianNSIDC_AGDC > NSIDC Antarctic Glaciological Data Centerhttps://nsidc.org/data/agdc/httpsdistributorNSIDC USER SERVICESNSIDC > National Snow and Ice Data Center+1 (303) 492-6199+1 (303) 492-2468National Snow and Ice Data CenterCIRES, 449 UCBUniversity of ColoradoBoulderCO80309-0449USAnsidc@nsidc.orgpointOfContactROB BAUERNSIDC_AGDC > NSIDC Antarctic Glaciological Data Center303-492-2378303-492-2468University of ColoradoCooperative Institute for Research in Environmental SciencesCIRES 449 UCBBoulderCO80309USAbauer@nsidc.orgpointOfContactNSIDC AGDC USER SERVICESNSIDC_AGDC > NSIDC Antarctic Glaciological Data Center+1 (303) 492-6199+1 (303) 492-2468National Snow and Ice Data CenterCIRES, 449 UCBUniversity of ColoradoBoulderCO80309-0449USAnsidc@nsidc.orgpointOfContactJEFFREY P SEVERINGHAUS858-822-2483858-822-3310Scripps Institution of Oceanography9500 Gilman Dr.La JollaCA92093-0244USAjseveringhaus@ucsd.edupointOfContactNSF/PLR > Division of Polar Programs, National Science FoundationprojectEARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY > TRACE GASES/TRACE SPECIES > NONE > NONE > NONEEARTH SCIENCE > PALEOCLIMATE > ICE CORE RECORDS > CARBON DIOXIDE > NONE > NONE > NONEEARTH SCIENCE > PALEOCLIMATE > ICE CORE RECORDS > ICE CORE AIR BUBBLES > NONE > NONE > NONEEARTH SCIENCE > PALEOCLIMATE > ICE CORE RECORDS > METHANE > NONE > NONE > NONEEARTH SCIENCE > PALEOCLIMATE > ICE CORE RECORDS > NONE > NONE > NONE > NONEEARTH SCIENCE > CRYOSPHERE > GLACIERS/ICE SHEETS > ABLATION ZONES/ACCUMULATION ZONES > NONE > NONE > NONEthemeGCMDCONTINENT > ANTARCTICA > NONE > NONE > NONE > NONEGEOGRAPHIC REGION > POLAR > NONE > NONE > NONE > NONEplaceNot providedplatformhttp://www.nsf.gov/awardsearch/showAward.do?AwardNumber=0839031Description:
