Retrieving a common accumulation record from Greenland ice cores for the past 1800 years

The DYE-3 accumulation rates have been filterede to remove effects from upstream surface  undulations on the DYE-3 accumulation record. This filter does, however, also remove the lowest-frequency variations in the DYE-3 accumulation record (see reference).

Mid to Late Holocene hydroclimatic and geochemical records from the varved sediments of East Lake, Cape Bounty, Canadian High Arctic

Varve Thickness (VT) measured on digital scan  of thin-sections (pixel size 10.6 um).

This study shows a significant positive correlation between snow depth at Mould Bay and CBEL VT (r = 0.48), and a significant negative correlation between thermal conditions during the 9 months before snowmelt at Mould Bay and VT (r = âˆ’0.41)

Note added by NAm2k hydroclimate authors: Large directional shifts (ca 300, 1470 yr BP) probably robust; smaller high-frequency changes in depth likely outside precision of the model (explicit error estimates not presented in paper)

Note added by NAm2k hydroclimate authors: RMSEP of diatom-inferred depth is 1.4 m; hence only post AD 1800 trend likely statistically significant
