Dear colleagues,
We would like to bring your attention and encourage you to submit abstracts to the following EGU 2022 session:
CL1.2.5. The state-of-the-art in ice coring sciences
https://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU22/session/42598
The deadline for abstracts is January 12th, 13:00 CET
The half-century since the first deep ice core drilling at Camp Century, Greenland, has seen extensive innovation in methods of ice sample extraction, analysis and interpretation. Ice core sciences include isotopic diffusion analysis, multiple-isotope systematics, trace gases and their isotopic compositions, ice structure and physical properties, high-resolution analysis of major and trace impurities, and studies of DNA and radiochemistry in ice, among many others. Many climate and geochemical proxies have been identified from ice cores, with ongoing effort to extend their application and refine their interpretation. Great challenges remain in the field of ice coring sciences, including the identification of suitable sites for recovery of million-year-old ice; spatial integration of climate records (e.g. PAGES groups Antarctica2k and Iso2k); and deeper understanding of glaciological phenomena such as streaming flow, folding of layers and basal ice properties. This session welcomes all contributions reporting the state-of-the-art in ice coring sciences, including drilling and processing, dating, analytical techniques, results and interpretations of ice core records from polar ice sheets and mid- and low-latitude glaciers, remote and autonomous methods of surveying ice stratigraphy, and related modelling research.
The session is planned to be hybrid in person/online.
On behalf of conveners,
Michael Dyonisius, Michael Döring, Julien Westhoff, Amy King, and Anja Eichler.
Hope to see some of you there!
Best,
