EDC (EPICA Dome C) * Latitude: -75.100000 * Longitude: 123.350000 * Date/Time Start: 1993-01-01T00:00:00 * Date/Time End: 2004-12-31T00:00:00 * Elevation: 3233.0 m * Recovery: 3300 m * Location: Dome C, Antarctica * Campaign: Dome C * Method/Device: Ice drill (ICEDRILL) * Comment: Drill site is 56 km from the site of a previous Dome C core that provided records extending into the last glacial period, and 560 km from the site of the Vostok cores. The completion of the Dome C core was delayed when the first drilling became stuck at 788 m in 1999 (EDC96).
Comment:
d13CH4 data are measured using the system described in:
Schmitt, J., B. Seth, M. Bock, H. Fischer, "Online technique for isotope and mixing ratios of CH4, N2O, Xe and mixing ratios of organic trace gases on a single ice core sample", Atmospheric Measurement Techniques, 7/8, 2645-2665, 2014, doi:10.5194/amt-7-2645-2014
All data are free of krypton interference during the mass spectrometric analysis. For details see:
Schmitt, J., B. Seth, M. Bock, C. van der Veen, L. Möller, C. J. Sapart, M. Prokopiou, T. Sowers, T. Röckmann, H. Fischer, "On the interference of Kr during carbon isotope analysis of methane using continuous-flow combustion-isotope ratio mass spectrometry", Atmospheric Measurement Techniques, 6/1, 1425-1445, 2013, doi:10.5194/amt-6-1425-2013
