NOAA/WDS Paleoclimatology - East Rongbuk Glacier - 50-Year Black Carbon Data
This archived Paleoclimatology Study is available from the NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI), under the World Data Service (WDS) for Paleoclimatology. The associated NCEI study type is Ice Core. The data include parameters of ice cores with a geographic location of Nepal, Southcentral Asia. The time period coverage is from 0 to -51 in calendar years before present (BP). See metadata information for parameter and study location details. Please cite this study when using the data.
