Nitrate and Conductivity Data from the GISP H Core
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/106.ARCSS026

Summary
This data set contains nitrate and conductivity measurements taken from the
Greenland Summit Ice Sheet Project (GISP) H core. GISP was a decade-long
project during the 1970s and early 1980s to study the climatic record stored
in ice sheets, and involved scientists and funding agencies from Denmark,
Switzerland and the United States. Nitrate and electrical conductivity
measurements aid in the dating of ice cores by providing information about
past volcanic eruptions and climate change. This data set involves a total of
7776 individual analyses from the surface of the core to a depth of 122
meters. The analyses were performed simultaneously on the same 1.5 cm ice core
sample for each data series.
