Download Data via FTP: Crete Ice Core Data
The Crete, Greenland ice cores consist of 8 short cores drilled in the 1984-85 field season
as part of the post-GISP campaigns, and the original 400 meter Crete core drilled in 1974.
Glaciological investigations were carried out in the field at eight sites. The sites are named
A through H. The field work was a joint Swiss, Danish, and American venture as part of the
Greenland Ice Sheet Project (GISP).
