Historical N2O Record from Ice Cores at Byrd Station (Antarctica) and Dye 3 (Greenland) in CDIAC, Trends '93
Entry ID: CDIAC_N2O_BYRD

[ Update this Record ]

Summary
Abstract: Nitrous oxide (N2O) records from the Byrd (Antarctica) 1968 ice core
spans the period 43,000 - 800 BP. The N2O record for the Dye 3 ice
core in Greenland covers the period from 1781 - 1947 (A.D.). Ice core
data include the ice core depth, mean age of the air and N2O
concentrations in parts per billion by volume (ppbv).
