TALDICE-1 age scale of the Talos Dome deep ice core, East Antarctica. 
Climate of the Past, 7, 1-16, 2011. doi:10.5194/cp-7-1-2011</Reference>
  <Summary>
    <Abstract>A new deep ice core drilling program, TALDICE, has been successfully 
handled by a European team at Talos Dome, in the Ross Sea sector 
of East Antarctica, down to 1620m depth. Using stratigraphic markers 
and a new inverse method, we produce the first official chronology 
of the ice core, called TALDICE-1. We show that it notably improves 
an a priori chronology resulting from a one-dimensional ice flow model. 
It is in agreement with a posteriori controls of the resulting 
accumulation rate and thinning function along the core. An absolute 
uncertainty of only 300 yr is obtained over the course of the last 
deglaciation. This uncertainty remains lower than 600 yr over Marine 
Isotope Stage 3, back to 50 kyr BP. The phasing of the TALDICE ice core 
climate record with respect to the central East Antarctic plateau 
and Greenland records can thus be determined with a precision allowing 
for a discussion of the mechanisms at work at submillennial time scales. 
          STUDY NOTES: CH4 record from the Talos Dome ice core, Antarctica, 
covering the whole ice core.
