The first ice core drilling campaign of Beyond Epica-Oldest Ice has been successfully completed. This international research project was funded by the European Commission with 11 million euros, supported by significant financial and in-kind contributions from the participating nations, and is coordinated by the Institute of Polar Sciences of the Cnr (National Research Council of Italy). The project aims to obtain information on the evolution of the temperatures, on the composition of the atmosphere and on the carbon cycle over the last 1.5 million years, by analysing a deep ice core extracted from the Antarctic ice sheet.

Congratulations to Emilie Capron, who received the prestigious AXA award for her work on the reconstruction of past climates. The study of paleoclimatic archives, such as ice cores, allows us to understand the mechanisms of climate variations over time scales much longer than that of recent observations. Emilie is particularly interested in fast climate variations and warm periods, which provide the keys to predicting the future climate.

A scientific article co-published by the iCe3 team is the subject of a news by INSU. It analyzes the origin of the ammonium (NH4+) which reaches central Antarctica based on a new climatology of atmospheric levels of NH4+, sulfur derivatives emitted by the marine biosphere, as well as species emitted by biomass burning, such as carbon soot and oxalate.
