Event(s):
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).

Vostok * Latitude: -78.464420 * Longitude: 106.837320 * Date/Time: 1980-01-01T00:00:00 * Elevation: 3488.0 m * Recovery: 2755 m * Location: Antarctica * Campaign: Ice_core_diverse * Basis: Sampling/drilling ice * Method/Device: Drilling/drill rig (DRILL) * Comment: annual pressure 624 mbar; mean annual temperature -55.5°C; snow accumulation between 2.2 and
22.5 g/cm**2/yr, about 250 ka
