The Accidental Scientist Telling the Stories of Science Friday, February 15th, 2008 Ice Stories it features the research of scientists working in the Arctic and Antarctic. We launched the site last November and equipped some Antarctic scientists with video cameras to document their work and send back dispatches We got first-hand reports about flooding of penguin nest s from melting glaciers in the Ross Sea, heard a raging storm from a glacier camp in West Antarctica, and, in a live webcast, spoke with scientists collecting sediment cores at a sea-ice drilling camp out of McMurdo Station.

64. Site 2 (S2) Glaciology Station One of the key sciences during the IGY was glaciology, and to this end the Wilkes winter crew included a team of three glaciologists, Olav Loken, http://antarctica.kulgun.net/History/Wilkes/s2.shtml

Loken Trip to S2 Trip to S2, April 6, 1958 By Seb Borrello Trip to S2 in 96/97 by Darryn Schneider Photos from a trip to S2 in 96/97 The International Geophysical Year (IGY) was a world wide investigation of the earth, ranging from the solid earth, through the atmosphere, and all the way out to space. The research was conducted by many nations cooperating in an unprecedented way. Crucial to the success of the IGY was gathering data in the polar regions, and to this end bases were set up in Antarctica. Working in Antarctica presents logistical hurdles not normally encountered in science, and many nations looked to their defense forces to provide logistical support, and in the case of the US, the navy was the obvious choice with their icebreakers and experience in polar regions. After 11 hours of travel from Wilkes, during which time the slope had been gradually leveling off, until the terrain was close to flat, Dick Cameron announcing "This is the place". The new sub-base called Site-2 (S2 for short) was located 85km from Wilkes and 1300m above sea level. Straight away the team set up a Jamesway hut, a weather station, a large grid of surface stakes to measure snow accumulation and horizontal ice deformation, and they started a pit which would eventually extend hundreds of years back in the ice record. However for now it was just a start and the team headed back to Wilkes. On January 22nd, 1958 S2 was closed down for crew change-over at Wilkes after being continuously manned since April, producing along with the glaciological results, and an unbroken meteorological record for this period. Site-2 would be soon re-occupied by the 1958 crew, and studies would continue there for many years.

Journal of Glaciology, Vol. 44, No. 146, 1998 The ECLIPSE drill: a field-portable intermediate-depth ice-coring drill ERIK W. BLAKE, CAMERON P. WAKE, MICHAEL D. GERASIMOFF Icefield Instruments Inc., PO Box 5567, Whitehorse, Yukon YIA 5H4, Canada Climate Change Research Center, Institute of the Study of the Earth, Oceans and Space, University of New Hampshire, Durham, New Hampshire 03824, U.S.A. ABSTRACT A derivative of the Danish tipping-tower intermediate-depth ice-coring drill system has been developed for use in remote areas. The system as described is capable of drilling to depths of 250 m, although the drill has been proven to 350 m. The drill system is designed to be transported by hand and consumes 700 W maximum power from a 24 V d.c. battery bank charged by solar panels or a small generator. A field test in the St Elias Mountains, Yukon, produced good-quality core to 161.6 m depth; drilling at 6500 m a.s.l. on Far East Rongbuk Glacier, Mount Everest, produced good core to 42 m depth. INTRODUCTION WINCH DESIGN DRILL CABLE DRILL ... REFERENCES INTRODUCTION The University of Copenhagen tipping-tower intermediatedepth electromechanical ice-coring drill system and its predecessors were developed in the 1970s (Rand, 1976; Rufli and others, 1976, Johnsen and others, 1980; Gundestrup and others, 1989). In 1992, the Geological Survey of Canada (GSC) tested their version of this drill system (called "HILDA") on Agassiz Ice Cap, Ellesmere Island, Northwest Territories. In subsequent years, drilling on Agassiz Ice Cap (1993,1994) and Penny Ice Cap, Baffin Island (1995,1996), proved that HILDA can drill dry holes to 350 in, while producing good-quality ice core. HILDA produces 82 mm diameter core in roughly 90 cm lengths with virtually complete core recovery (personal communication from D. Fisher, GSC).
