Ice core evidence for a recent increase in snow accumulation in coastal Dronning Maud Land, East Antarctica
2016
15 Abstract. Ice cores provide temporal records of snow accumulation, a crucial component of Antarctic mass balance. Coastal areas are particularly under-represented in such records, despite their relatively high and sensitive accumulation rates. Here we present records from a 120 m ice core drilled on Derwael Ice Rise, coastal Dronning Maud Land (DML), East Antarctica in 2012. We date the ice core bottom back to 1745 ± 2 AD. � 18 O andD stratigraphy is supplemented by discontinuous major ion profiles, and verified independently by
