Title: NITEDC: Concentration and oxygen and nitrogen isotopic ratios of surface snow nitrate collected during the logistic traverse between Dumont d'Urville and Concordia station in December 2007

Description:

Abstract:

This database presents the concentration and oxygen and nitrogen isotopic ratios of surface snow collected during the logistic traverse between Dumont d'Urville and Concordia station (Antarctica) in December 2007. Small snow pit (<1m) was dug and snow was sampled with a depth resolution < 5 cm. Samples were bagged and analyzed on site for concentration measurement and in Grenoble (France) for isotopic ratios.
