Abstract:
Annual-resolved non-sea-salt sulfur concentrations from a four ice-core stack, NEEM-2011-S1 (Sigl et al., 2013), NGRIP1 (Plummer et al., 2012), TUNU2013 (Sigl et al., 2015) and B19, between 1731 and 1996 CE including volcanic samples and with volcanic samples replaced by a 11-year running median.
