Atmospheric CO2 Trapped in the Ice Core from Siple Dome, Antarctica
Entry ID:
NSIDC-0202
Summary
Abstract:
These data are CO2 concentration of the air occluded in Siple Dome ice core,
Antarctica. The study was conducted between January 2001 and March 2003 on a deep ice core from Siple Dome Core A, located at 81.66 S, 148.82 W. The data covers up to the Termination II (around 140,000 years ago). The parameters are depth in meters and carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration in part per million (ppm). The ...

Quality
For each data point, four to six samples from the same depth interval were
dry-extracted mechanically. Each sample has a volume of 4~6 cm3. CO2 concentration was measured with IR tunable diode laser spectroscopy, scanning a single vibrational-rotational absorption line.
Use Constraints
The data before 40,000 yr BP can be used only with permission by the
authors (Jinho Ahn, Martin Wahlen,and Bruce Deck ) Ancillary Keywords
