WAISCORES researchers acquired and analyzed ice cores from the Siple Dome, in the Siple Coast region, West Antarctica.
Lamorey measured the density of the shallow Siple Dome cores B - I. One-meter sections of the ice core were weighed on a balance beam in the field. The volume was determined by measuring the diameter and length of the core. The data consists of tab-delimited text files of density measurements and a sonic velocity profile, and a .gif format density-versus-depth plot. Data are available via FTP.VIEW RELATED INFORMATIONhttps://doi.org/10.7265/N52F7KCDDocumentationGET DATAhttp://www.usap-dc.org/view/dataset/609129Get External DataPROJECT HOME PAGEhttp://nsidc.org/data/waiscores/WAISCORES Product Web SiteCEOS IDN DIFVERSION 9.92003-05-142023-05-23NSIDCVersion SummaryNSIDCMinor VersionNSIDCCurrent Version1NSIDCFull Dataset Citation2003. <i>Siple Shallow Core Density Data.</i> [indicate subset used].
