Summary

Description
English: This drill was used as part of the WAIS Divide ice core project to collect an ice core that contained a record of how and why climate changed in the past. The ice core that extends out of the drill was collected from a depth of about 2 km and is clear because all the atmospheric air trapped in the ice has been pushed in to clathrates by the pressure of the ice above it.
