An assessment of the glaciological and meteorological characteristics of Dome A, the … summit of the East Antarctic ice sheet, is made based on field investigations during the austral summer of … 2004/05.

Preliminary evidence indicating Dome A (Antarctica) satisfying preconditions for drilling the oldest ice core Chinese Science Bulletin (Springer-Verlag), 2007 (Ref: 13236)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Lowest temperature and snow accumulation rate are preconditions for retrieving the oldest ice core … from the polar ice sheets. The 10-m depth firn temperature at Dome A, the summit of the Antarctic Ice … Sheet, recorded by an automatic weather station (AWS) was −58.3 in 2005 and −58.2 in 2006…

Snow accumulation along the Chinese ITASE traverse line from Antarctic coast to Dome A: Measurements from stakes and automatic weather stations. Abstracts of the SCAR Open Science Conference, Hobart, 12-14 July 2006., 2006 (Ref: 12545)
Category 3: Abstract

Surface snow accumulation along the Chinese ITASE traverse line was measured using … bamboo stakes. Stakes along the initial (coastal) 300 km of the line were installed in 1997. The stake network was extended to 465 km in 1998, to 1100 km in 1999 and finally to 1228 … km (from the coast to Dome A)…
