Abstract

This dataset includes basic information (location and depth) and major ion chemistry (Sodium, Chloride, Calcium, Nitrate) of snow cores from East Antarctic ice sheet. The snow cores were collected from two different regions - central Dronning Maud Land (cDML) and Princess Elizabeth Land (PEL) during the austral summer of 2008-09.
