MARC recordChemical composition of ice containing tephra layers in the Byrd station ice core, Antarctica / Julie M. Palais, Philip R. Kyle.
| Title: | Chemical composition of ice containing tephra layers in the Byrd station ice core, Antarctica / Julie M. Palais, Philip R. Kyle. |
| Author(s): | Palais, Julie M. Kyle, Philip R. |
| Date: | 1988. |
| In: | Quaternary Research. (1988.), Vol. 30(3) (1988) |
| Abstract: | By examining chemical composition of ice, especially acidity and excess sulphate derived from H₂SO₄ before, during, and after deposition of tephra layers, it was possible to recognize minor perturbations of chemical composition of precipitation, and thus atmospheric aerosols, due to volcanic events (probably at Mt Takahe, 450 km away). Concludes that eruption had only small effect on composition of Antarctic atmosphere and negligible effect on local or global climate. |
