Sulphate dust deposits drilled deep from the West Antarctic ice sheet have provided a glimpse into the history of over 2,000 years of volcanic eruptions. A team of scientists led by Michael Sigl and Joe McConnell of Nevada's Desert Research Institute (DRI) has completed the most accurate and precise reconstruction to date of historic volcanic sulfate emissions in the Southern Hemisphere and Sigl said that this record provided the basis for a dramatic improvement ...Monday, 7 July 2014
Antarctic Ice Sheet Holds a Record of 2,000 Years of Volcanic Eruptions
