Newall Glacier Snow Pit and Ice Core, 1987 to 1989 Snow pit and
ice core data from the Newall Glacier (location - 162 30' East,
77 35' South) were collected during 1987 and 1988. These include
information on chemistry, Beta profiles and stratigraphy. Ice
cores were collected during the austral summer of 1988-1989 and
contain information on chemistry, Pb- 210 profiles, density
profiles and temperature profiles. Core A was 175 meters long
and core B was 150 meters long. The snow pits were dug and
sampled by the Glacier Research Group (GRG), using established
protocols to prevent contamination. The samples for major ion
chemistry remained frozen until melted for analysis in the GRG
lab, located at the University of New Hampshire (UNH), and all
core processing was done by GRG established protocols to prevent
contamination. Major ions were analyzed using suppressed ion
chromatography. The following example shows how to cite the use
of this data set in a publication. For more information, see our
