Vostok ice core: a continuous isotope temperature record over the last climatic cycle (160,000 years)

TL;DR: In this article, a deuterium profile along the 160,000-year Vostok ice core (Antarctica) is interpreted in terms of atmospheric temperature changes, which is the awaited terrestrial complement of the deep-sea records supporting the existence of a relation between the Pleistocene climate and orbital forcing.
Journal ArticleDOI

Eemian interglacial reconstructed from a Greenland folded ice core

Dorthe Dahl-Jensen, +132 more
- 24 Jan 2013 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the North Greenland Eemian Ice Drilling (NEEM) ice core was extracted from folded Greenland ice using globally homogeneous parameters known from dated Greenland and Antarctic ice-core records.

Eemian interglacial reconstructed from a Greenland folded ice core (SCI)

Dorthe Dahl-Jensen, +133 more
TL;DR: The new North Greenland Eemian Ice Drilling (‘NEEM’) ice core is presented and shows only a modest ice-sheet response to the strong warming in the early Eemians, which was probably driven by the decreasing summer insolation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Patagonian origin of glacial dust deposited in East Antarctica (Vostok and Dome C) during glacial stages 2, 4 and 6

TL;DR: In this paper, the isotopic composition (87 Sr 86 Sr and 143 Nd 144 Nd ) of the ice-core dust has been compared with the isotope composition of the potential source areas: Antarctica, New Zealand, Southern Africa, Australia and South America.
Journal ArticleDOI

Holocene Climate Variability in Antarctica Based on 11 Ice-Core Isotopic Records

TL;DR: In this article, a comparison is made of the Holocene records obtained from water isotope measurements along 11 ice cores from coastal and central sites in east Antarctica (Vostok, Dome B, Plateau Remote, Komsomolskaia, Dome C, Taylor Dome, Dominion Range, D47, KM105, and Law Dome) and west Antarctica (Byrd), with temporal resolution from 20 to 50 yr.
