Summary
Abstract: Data from J. Priscu and C. Foreman, Montana State University. WAIS Divide core (WDC05Q, Stick D). Ice core samples were decontaminated following (Christner et al., 2005 Icarus, 174: 572-584) and handled in a class 100 environmental chamber. Meltwater was pre-filtered (30um) and gently sonicated prior to staining biotic particles with 5uM SYTO 60 (Invitrogen) for 5 min. Counts of biotic and ... View entire text
