Ice-core drilling at 5700 m powered by a solar voltaic array / Bruce R. Koci.

Title: Ice-core drilling at 5700 m powered by a solar voltaic array / Bruce R. Koci.
Author(s): Koci, Bruce R.
Date: 1985.
In: Journal of Glaciology. (1985.), Vol. 31(109) (1985)
Abstract: During summer 1983, 2 kW array of 48 solar panels (transported by horse and man) were used to power drill which collected two ice cores of 154 and 163 m length to bedrock on Quelccaya ice cap, Peru. Method found to be 100% reliable and leaves study area in pristine condition.
