This award is in support of the chemical aspects of the second                  Greenland Ice Sheet Project (GISP II).  Ice core samples retrieved              from the GISP II project will be analyzed for major cations and                 anions, total acidity and ionic balances.  The data will be used                for several purposes, which may be broadly categorized as                       identification of climate change indicators, examination of the                 history of volcanic eruptions, determination of changes in global               atmospheric chemistry (both natural and anthropogenic),                         identification of solar phenomena, and comparison with other                    chemical and physical measurements involved in GISP II.  These                  objectives will be achieved by a program which includes processing              the core samples, conducting the chemical analyses of the samples,              and performing data analysis.  Core processing will involve ultra-              clean procedures to prepare the samples for analysis.  The                      chemical analyses will be conducted primarily by ion                            chromatography.  The data will be treated to determine statistical              features such as trends over time, episodic events, and dominant                frequencies for cyclic variations in concentration.  The results                of the project, when combined with other types of data from GISP                II will be used to further our understanding of global change.                  The findings will also enhance our understanding of the impact of               man's activities on the global atmosphere.
