EPICA Dome C Ice Cores Deuterium Data
Entry ID: PALEO_EPICA_2004-038

[ Update this Record ]

Summary
Abstract: Deuterium (dD) data from EPICA Dome C ice cores, 6.6-3140.5 metres, also
presented as 3 kyr averages, 0-741 kyr.

dD was determined on meltwater from 55 cm long sections. The current dataset
was derived using a "quick" mode (each sample is measured twice instead of
four times), leading to a typical accuracy of 1.5%, whereas we aim for a
final precision of 0.5% over the entire core. The data here correspond to
values averaged across seven successive samples (depth scale) or averaged
across 3000 year intervals. Ages are given on timescale EDC2 (EPICA Community
Members, Eight glacial cycles from an Antarctic ice core, Nature, 429 (6992),
623-628, 2004).
