Record #120418:

Oxygen isotope study of the ice fields surrounding the Reckling Moraine on the east Antarctic ice sheet / Gunter Faure, Pieter M. Grootes, David Buchanan, Erik H. Hagen.

Title: Oxygen isotope study of the ice fields surrounding the Reckling Moraine on the east Antarctic ice sheet / Gunter Faure, Pieter M. Grootes, David Buchanan, Erik H. Hagen.
Author(s): Faure, Gunter.
Grootes, Pieter M.
Buchanan, David.
Hagen, Erik H.
Date: 1992.
In: Antarctic Research Series. (1992.), Vol. 57 (1992)
Abstract: Model proposed for accumulation of meteorite specimens on these ice fields suggests that partial stratigraphic sections of ice sheet are exposed here. To verify this, oxygen isotope compositions were determined in ice samples collected along three survey lines and found to vary significantly. Strongly ¹⁸O-depleted ice is identified as basal ice that formed during Pleistocene, but large number of apparent transitions from glacial to interglacial ice suggests that stratigraphy of ice, and hence its climatic record, may have been disturbed locally by structural deformation of ice sheet.
