Dataset - "Ice core evidence for a 20th century increase in surface mass balance in coastal Dronning Maud Land, East Antarctica"

<p>We provide in this dataset the isotopic and ionic records from a 120 m-long ice core drilled at the summit of Derwael ice rise (70&deg;14&#39;44.88&#39;&#39; S, 26&deg;20&#39;5.64&#39;&#39; E) situated in coastal Dronning Maud Land, East Antarctica. Ions concentrations (Na⁺, MSA, Cl^-, SO₄^2- and NO₃^-) and water stable isotopes (&delta;¹⁸O, &delta;D and d-excess) are presented for the top 103 meters (corresponding to 1815 and the Tambora eruption) with a continuous record for the water stable isotopes and discontinuous sections for ions concentrations.&nbsp;A complementary database &ldquo;Annual layer thicknesses and age-depth (oldest estimate) of Derwael Ice Rise (IC12), Dronning Maud Land, East Antarctica&rdquo; with age model and annual layer thickness is available at https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.857574 and the companion paper is Philippe et al., 2016 (&ldquo;Ice core evidence for a 20th century increase in surface mass balance in coastal Dronning Maud Land, East Antarctica&rdquo;, https://doi.org/10.5194/tc-10-2501-2016).</p>
