Developing an optical scanning and digital image-analysis system for ice cores. at SUB-MILLIMETER precision. permits any researcher to examine a core as if it were in pristine-recovery conditions. permits collaborative interpretation. Ken McGwire, Ken Taylor, Desert Research Institute + National Ice Core Laboratory, USGS, Denver, CO & Richard Alley, Pennsylvania State University Digital Imaging of Ice Cores Atmospheric Input of Fe and P to the Arctic over the Past Century, as Recorded in the Greenland Ice Cores Ross Edwards, Desert Research Institute Reconstructing high temporal resolution records of bio-available Iron, Phosphorous and PH from Greenlandic ice cores
