Outline of Annual Research Achievements

<氷床コア関連>ドームふじコアの気体等の解析を進め、氷床内の気体分別と拡散に関する研究をまとめたほか、これまでに得られたデータを用いて1次元氷床流動モデルやフィルン圧密モデル、ベイズ法年代モデルを制約することで、過去21万年にわたり最も正確な古環境年代を構築した。連続融解法によるメタンや化学成分の分析も継続した。また、古海洋班と連携して共通年代構築のための研究を実施した。
硫黄同位体比の分析結果から、最終氷期では陸域を起源とする硫酸エアロゾルの寄与が大きかったことを明らかにした。さらに、同位体比データから、南米アタカマ砂漠周辺が最も有力な供給源地域であることが判明した。これらから、極度に乾燥した低・中緯度の砂漠に存在する水溶性物質が、南極の硫酸 エアロゾルの供給源の一つであることを明らかにした。
<広域雪氷観測>南極氷床の沿岸から内陸にかけての表面質量収支の観測を実施した。東南極ドロンニングモードランド地域の表面質量収支の時空間変動について、雪尺データに基づく推定とモデル研究者との議論を深めた。内陸の氷床レーダー観測のデータを用いて、基盤地形や氷床底面環境、表面質量収支に関する解析を進め、一部を論文として出版した。
<氷河・海洋観測>ラングホブデ氷河にて、これまでよりも上流側に焦点をあて、同氷河では初めて接地線よりも上流側で深さ515 mの全層掘削に成功した。この掘削孔を使って、氷河底面における水圧変動の測定を行った。また、加速度計を内蔵した底面すべり測定装置を開発して氷河底面に対する氷の滑りと微振動を測定した。熱水掘削と掘削孔を使った観測によって、氷河表面の融解水が氷河内水路を通じて底面へ流入し、流動加速が生じることを示した。そのようなプロセスは山岳氷河で明らかになっており、グリーンランド氷床でも確認されつつあるが、南極氷床においては初めて観測されたものである。
