This award is for support for two years to develop the technology and methodology for digitizing the photographs and analyzing the thin sections from ice cores. In addition, the application of digital technology for whole-core stratigraphy, using digital photography, image enhancement and image processing will be investigated. The thin section analysis will be piloted with samples already in hand from the Taylor Dome ice core. If successful, these techniques will be applied to samples from the Siple Dome ice core, in cooperation with Principal Investigators already funded to retrieve and examine these sections. The original digital images with all original data annotation files will be distributed to Siple Dome principal investigators for their use in the interpretation of their own data. All software and hardware acquired for this project will become part of the permanent equipment inventory at the U.S. National Ice Core Laboratory and will be available for use by clients at the facility.

该奖项是为了支持两年来开发数字化照片和分析冰芯薄切片的技术和方法。 此外，还将研究数字技术在全岩心地层学中的应用，包括数字摄影、图像增强和图像处理。 薄切片分析将与泰勒圆顶冰芯样品已经在手进行试点。 如果成功的话，这些技术将应用于从Siple Dome冰芯中提取的样本，并与已经资助的主要研究人员合作检索和检查这些部分。 原始数字图像和所有原始数据注释文件将分发给Siple Dome主要研究者，供其用于解释自己的数据。 为该项目购买的所有软件和硬件将成为美国国家冰芯实验室永久设备库存的一部分，并将供该设施的客户使用。
