Abstract:

Roosevelt Island Climate Evolution (RICE) ice core calcium (Ca) data, measured using continuous flow analysis (CFA), covering last glacial period 83000-26000 years BP is presented here. RICE is a 764-m long ice core retrieved from Roosevelt Island, a coastal dome in the vicinity of Ross Sea, West Antarctica. The measurements were made at Centre for Ice and Climate, University of Copenhagen, Denmark in 2015 and posses annual resolution. A three-point calibration was used for the measurements.
