The New Yorker January 7, 2002 SECTION: LETTER FROM GREENLAND; Pg. 30 LENGTH: 5641 words HEADLINE: ICE MEMORY; Does a glacier hold the secret of how civilization began-and how it may end? BYLINE: ELIZABETH KOLBERT BODY: Ice, like water, flows, and so the North Greenland Ice-core Project, or North GRIP, lies in the center of the island, along a line known as the ice divide. This is a desolate spot eight degrees north of the Arctic Circle, but, thanks to the New York Air National Guard, not actually all that difficult to reach. The research station is open from mid-May to mid-August, and every season the Guard provides some half- dozen flights to it, using specially ski-equipped LC-130s. The planes, also outfitted with small rockets, can land directly on the ice, which stretches for hundreds of miles in every direction. (To the extent that there is a military justification for the flights, it is to keep pilots in practice; however, the main purpose o practicing seems to be to make the flights-an arrangement whose logic I could never quite fathom.) This past June, I flew up to North GRIP on a plane that was carrying several thousand feet of drilling cable, a group of glaciologists, and Denmark's then minister of research, a stout, red-haired woman named Birthe Weiss. Like the rest of us, the Minister had to sit in the hold, wearing military-issue earplugs.

  • A Technique for Continuous Detection of Drill Liquid in Ice Cores
    M. Sc. Thesis, September 18, 2012 A Technique for Continuous Detection of Drill Liquid in Ice Cores Erik Warming Andersen Centre for Ice and Climate, Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen, Denmark Supervisors: Anders Svensson and Paul Vallelonga Centre for Ice and Climate, Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen, Denmark Abstract When drilling ice cores deeper than 100 meters, drill liquid is required to limit bore-hole de- formation. Due to pressure differences in the ice, in Greenland typically between 800 to 1200 meters depth, the ice cores can crack during drilling. Ice from this "brittle zone" can be contam- inated by drill liquid that seeps into cracks and this potentially contaminates chemical analysis of ice core samples. The Continuous Flow Analysis (CFA) system melts a subsection of the ice core, and analyses the ice for chemical impurities. Drill liquid can potentially interfere with the measurements or damage instruments. An optical detector was constructed to identify drill liquid in CFA tubing by UV absorption spectroscopy at a wavelength of 290 nm. To distinguish air bubbles from drill liquid, absorption was also monitored at 435 nm. The setup was suc- cessfully field tested in the frame of the NEEM ice core drilling project in Greenland. During 158 measuring runs, 27 proved positive for drill liquid. The instruments affected by drill liquid contamination were: the insoluble dust particle, the electrolytic conductivity, the ammonium, the hydrogen peroxide, and the sulfate detectors. 3 Danish resume N˚arman borer iskerner dybere end 100 meter, er det nødvendigt, at bruge borevæske for at forhindre at hullet kollapser grundet isens flydning og tryk.
