Stable water isotope composition (δ18O and δD) of an ice core from the Tsambagarav glacier, Mongolia, 2008
A 40 m ice core was drilled on the Tsambagarav glacier in the Mongolian Altai in 2008. After pretreatment of the ice core at the KOPRI lab including ice melting, the ice melt samples were analyzed for water isotopes (δ18O and δD) using Wavelength-Scanned Cavity Ring Down Spectroscopy (Picarro, Canada). Stable water isotope composition is used as fundamental data for depth-to-age conversion in an ice core. It can also provide valuable information on water vapor source for the sampling site.
