“…There is however good support for our assumed NO 3 À distribution in ice from observations of its tendency to accumulate at ice grain boundaries and from laboratory measurements. [24,34,35] Future work seeking to address the oxidising capacity due to OH within the snowpack through either measurements of its production and losses, or by direct observation would add support to this work too. The next uncertainty that we discuss again relates to scenario 3 in part two and it is the speciation and abundance of the OM detected in the snowpack.…”

“…[32] Concentrations of acidic solutes were found to be present at concentrations of ,10 mM at the South Pole. [33] However, because of the tendency of solutes to migrate to the surface layer in ice, [34,35] concentrations may become locally enhanced up to the 100-mM range [33] in the surface region.…”

“…The combination of these two techniques not only enables them to characterize the structural features of a sample but also permits them to identify the elemental constituents and contaminants that may be present. These techniques have been used to analyze snowflakes (Wolff and Reid, 1994), but have been more extensively applied to identifying impurities and their distribution in natural ices Iliescu et al, 2002), including Vostok ice and polar ice (Barnes et al, 2001;Cullen and Baker, 2000;Mulvaney et al, 1988;Wolff et al, 1988). Future research in this area may provide valuable information on the type and source of pollutants that are captured during snow and ice formation, as well as on how the elemental composition of polar and glacial ice changes through the ages.…”

“…These problems were solved by equipping the SEM with a cold stage that maintained the temperature of the ice sample near that of liquid nitrogen. As a result, samples of ice could be imaged, analyzed, and photographed (Barnes et al, 2001;Baker, 2000, 2002;Dominé et al, 2001;Iliescu et al, 2002;Kuroiwa, 1969;Muguruma, 1961;Mulvaney et al, 1988;Wolff et al, 1988).…”
