Glacio-environmental aspects recorded in two shallow ice cores drilled in 1980 at accumulation area of Khumbu Glacier of Mt. Everest in Nepal Himalayas

The physical and geochemical characteristics of shallow ice cores drilled in the accumulation area (Western Cwm) of Khumbu Glacier in the Nepal Himalayas in 1980 were analyzed. The two ice cores from different elevations (cores 1 and 2 from 6,100 and 6,400 m a.s.l., respectively) showed distinct str...
