Past changes in precipitation rate and ice thickness as derived from age-depth profiles in ice-sheets; application to Greenland and Canadian Arctic ice core records / Niels Reeh.
Title: | Past changes in precipitation rate and ice thickness as derived from age-depth profiles in ice-sheets; application to Greenland and Canadian Arctic ice core records / Niels Reeh. |
Author(s): | Reeh, Niels. |
Date: | 1990. |
Publisher: | Dordrecht: Kluwer Academic |
In: | Geological history of the polar oceans : Arctic versus Antarctic. (1990.), |
Abstract: | Simple non-steady-state ice dynamic model is presented that allows accumulation-rate and ice-thickness Holocene histories to be calculated from age-depth profiles in ice sheets. Past accumulation rate and ice-thickness histories of Greenland ice sheet and Devon Island ice cap, as derived by this model, are discussed. Accumulation rates appear to be substantially lower than hitherto thought; reasons for this are debated. |
