Record #163479:

Ice logging with light and sound / Ryan C. Bay, Nathan Bramall, P. Buford Price.

Title: Ice logging with light and sound / Ryan C. Bay, Nathan Bramall, P. Buford Price.
Author(s): Bay, Ryan C.
Bramall, Nathan.
Price, P. Buford.
Date: 2003.
In: Eos : transactions, American Geophysical Union. (2003.), Vol. 84(9) (2003)
Abstract: Reports progress by borehole instrumentation in logging records from ice cores of past climate, volcanism, c-axis ice fabric and more. Advantages include speed and sensitivity to fine ash layers. Biospectrologger should be sensitive to microbial life of around 10³/ml in glacial ice, and future ultrasonic logger may map grain sizes, essential in understanding glacial flow. Developments could extend to finding million year old ice in Antarctica, and biomolecules in Martian permafrost and ice cover of Europa.
