Here, we investigated the isotopic values (\u03b413C and \u03b415N) of four tissues (feather, skin, toenail, and bone) collected from fledgling-period chick carcasses of three species of pygoscelid penguins to compare the variability and accuracy of the data among tissues. Samples were collected at 25 de Mayo/King George Island during the 2017/18 austral summer. Chick carcasses are commonly found at active penguin colonies, and \u201copportunistic sampling\u201d can easily be performed without disturbing nesting penguins. A total of 25\u201336 carcasses per species were sampled at active colonies of Ad\u00e9lie Pygoscelis adeliae, Gentoo P. papua, and Chinstrap P. antarcticus penguins. A linear mixed model showed that \u03b413C values varied significantly between tissues, presumably due to tissue-specific isotopic discrimination. In contrast, the only tissue with significantly different \u03b415N values was toenail. Stable isotope data revealed dietary differences among species, with Gentoo Penguins having higher average isotopic values in tissues compared to Ad\u00e9lie and Chinstrap penguins. In addition, Chinstrap Penguins showed a consistent, but not statistically significant, trend in having higher \u03b413C values compared to Ad\u00e9lie Penguins. Gentoo Penguins displayed the highest isotopic variability of any species for all tissues. Isotopic composition was most variable in skin in all three species making skin the least reliable tissue for isotope analysis, whereas isotopic values were least variable in toenails. Comparison of isotopic values between two bones (tibiotarsus and coracoid) showed no significant differences in isotopic values, indicating that when the same bone is not available for sampling from carcasses, sampling of any major skeletal element is likely to provide a meaningful comparison.

This dataset contains uranium and thorium isotopic compositions (U-234, U-235, U-238, Th-230, Th-232) and major element compositions (Al, K, Na, Ca, Fe, Mn, reported as oxides) for silicate sediments from glaciogenic drifts associated with advances of Taylor Glacier in Taylor Valley, Antarctica. Isotopic measurements were obtained by ID-TIMS in the Keck Isotope Facility at UC Santa Cruz and elemental measurements were obtained by ICP-OES in the Plasma Analytical Laboratory. All measurements include fully propagated analytical and systematic (e.g. isotopic tracer) uncertainties. Chemical index of alteration was calculated from major element data. Prior to measurements, sediments were sieved to ≤125 μm grain sizes, separated into quartz-feldspar-rich and clay-rich aliquots by hydraulic settling, and subjected to sequential chemical extractions ("leaching") prior to silicate digestion. | ["POLYGON((161.9 -77.65,161.96 -77.65,162.02 -77.65,162.08 -77.65,162.14000000000001 -77.65,162.2 -77.65,162.26 -77.65,162.32 -77.65,162.38 -77.65,162.44 -77.65,162.5 -77.65,162.5 -77.66000000000001,162.5 -77.67,162.5 -77.68,162.5 -77.69,162.5 -77.7,162.5 -77.71000000000001,162.5 -77.72,162.5 -77.73,162.5 -77.74,162.5 -77.75,162.44 -77.75,162.38 -77.75,162.32 -77.75,162.26 -77.75,162.2 -77.75,162.14000000000001 -77.75,162.08 -77.75,162.02 -77.75,161.96 -77.75,161.9 -77.75,161.9 -77.74,161.9 -77.73,161.9 -77.72,161.9 -77.71000000000001,161.9 -77.7,161.9 -77.69,161.9 -77.68,161.9 -77.67,161.9 -77.66000000000001,161.9 -77.65))"] | ["POINT(162.2 -77.7)"] | false | false |

High-precision carbon isotope data (d13C-CO2) show atmospheric CO2 during Marine Isotope Stage 4 (MIS 4, ~70.5-59 ka) was controlled by a succession of millennial-scale processes. Enriched d13C-CO2 during peak glaciation suggests increased ocean carbon storage. Variations in d13C-CO2 in early MIS4 suggest multiple processes were active during CO2 drawdown, potentially including decreased land carbon and decreased Southern Ocean air-sea gas exchange superposed on increased ocean carbon storage. CO2 remained low during MIS 4 while d13C-CO2 fluctuations suggest changes in Southern Ocean and North Atlantic air-sea gas exchange. A 7 ppm increase in CO2 at the onset of Dansgaard-Oeschger event 19 (72.1 ka) and a 22 ppm increase in CO2 during late MIS 4 (Heinrich Stadial 6, ~63.5-60 ka) involved additions of isotopically light carbon to the atmosphere. The terrestrial biosphere and Southern Ocean air-sea gas exchange are possible sources, with the latter event also involving decreased ocean carbon storage. | ["POLYGON((161 -77.7,161.1 -77.7,161.2 -77.7,161.3 -77.7,161.4 -77.7,161.5 -77.7,161.6 -77.7,161.7 -77.7,161.8 -77.7,161.9 -77.7,162 -77.7,162 -77.71000000000001,162 -77.72,162 -77.73,162 -77.74,162 -77.75,162 -77.76,162 -77.77,162 -77.78,162 -77.78999999999999,162 -77.8,161.9 -77.8,161.8 -77.8,161.7 -77.8,161.6 -77.8,161.5 -77.8,161.4 -77.8,161.3 -77.8,161.2 -77.8,161.1 -77.8,161 -77.8,161 -77.78999999999999,161 -77.78,161 -77.77,161 -77.76,161 -77.75,161 -77.74,161 -77.73,161 -77.72,161 -77.71000000000001,161 -77.7))"] | ["POINT(161.5 -77.75)"] | false | false |

Collaborative Research: The Taylor Glacier, Antarctica, Horizontal Ice Core: Exploring changes in the Natural Methane Budget in a Warming World and Expanding the Paleo-archive |
Ice core measurements of the concentration and stable isotopic composition of atmospheric nitrous oxide (N2O) 74,000-59,000 years ago constrain marine and terrestrial emissions. The data include two major Dansgaard-Oeschger (D-O) events and the N2O decrease during global cooling at the Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 5a-4 transition. The N2O increase associated with D-O 19 (~73-71.5 ka) was driven by equal contributions from marine and terrestrial emissions. The N2O decrease during the transition into MIS 4 (~71.5-67.5 ka) was caused by gradual reductions of similar magnitude in both marine and terrestrial sources. A 50 ppb increase in N2O concentration at the end of MIS 4 was caused by gradual increases in marine and terrestrial emissions between ~64-61 ka, followed by an abrupt increase in marine emissions at the onset of D-O 16/17 (59.5 ka). This suggests that the importance of marine versus terrestrial emissions in controlling millennial-scale N2O fluctuations varied in time. | [] | [] | false | false |

Collaborative Research: Investigating Holocene Shifts in the Diets and Paleohistory of Antarctic Krill Predators |
Many types of animal tissues are increasingly being used for stable isotope analysis, with their application dependent on the time frame they reflect and their availability for collection. Here, we investigated the isotopic values (δ13C and δ15N) of four tissues (feather, skin, toenail, and bone) collected from fledgling-period chick carcasses of three species of pygoscelid penguins to compare the variability and accuracy of the data among tissues. Samples were collected at 25 de Mayo/King George Island during the 2017/18 austral summer. Chick carcasses are commonly found at active penguin colonies, and “opportunistic sampling” can easily be performed without disturbing nesting penguins. A total of 25–36 carcasses per species were sampled at active colonies of Adélie Pygoscelis adeliae, Gentoo P. papua, and Chinstrap P. antarcticus penguins. A linear mixed model showed that δ13C values varied significantly between tissues, presumably due to tissue-specific isotopic discrimination. In contrast, the only tissue with significantly different δ15N values was toenail. Stable isotope data revealed dietary differences among species, with Gentoo Penguins having higher average isotopic values in tissues compared to Adélie and Chinstrap penguins. In addition, Chinstrap Penguins showed a consistent, but not statistically significant, trend in having higher δ13C values compared to Adélie Penguins. Gentoo Penguins displayed the highest isotopic variability of any species for all tissues. Isotopic composition was most variable in skin in all three species making skin the least reliable tissue for isotope analysis, whereas isotopic values were least variable in toenails. Comparison of isotopic values between two bones (tibiotarsus and coracoid) showed no significant differences in isotopic values, indicating that when the same bone is not available for sampling from carcasses, sampling of any major skeletal element is likely to provide a meaningful comparison. These results allow for more informed opportunistic sampling to accurately estimate and compare penguin diet among species and between ancient and active colonies. | ["POLYGON((-58.62 -62.257,-58.6199 -62.257,-58.6198 -62.257,-58.6197 -62.257,-58.6196 -62.257,-58.6195 -62.257,-58.6194 -62.257,-58.6193 -62.257,-58.6192 -62.257,-58.6191 -62.257,-58.619 -62.257,-58.619 -62.2571,-58.619 -62.2572,-58.619 -62.2573,-58.619 -62.2574,-58.619 -62.2575,-58.619 -62.2576,-58.619 -62.2577,-58.619 -62.2578,-58.619 -62.2579,-58.619 -62.258,-58.6191 -62.258,-58.6192 -62.258,-58.6193 -62.258,-58.6194 -62.258,-58.6195 -62.258,-58.6196 -62.258,-58.6197 -62.258,-58.6198 -62.258,-58.6199 -62.258,-58.62 -62.258,-58.62 -62.2579,-58.62 -62.2578,-58.62 -62.2577,-58.62 -62.2576,-58.62 -62.2575,-58.62 -62.2574,-58.62 -62.2573,-58.62 -62.2572,-58.62 -62.2571,-58.62 -62.257))"] | ["POINT(-58.6195 -62.2575)"] | false | false |

EXPROBE-WAIS: Exposed Rock Beneath the West Antarctic Ice Sheet, A Test for Interglacial Ice Sheet Collapse |
This data set contains measurements of cosmic-ray-produced Be-10 and Al-26 in quartz from the RB-2 core, recovered from bedrock at a depth of 150 m below the West Antarctic Ice Sheet surface in the Pirrit Hills. The core site is located at latitude S81.09948, longitude W85.15694. Core length is approximately 8 meters. Lithology is A-type granite, similar in composition to bedrock exposed on nearby Harter Nunatak and other mountains in the Pirrit Hills (Lee et al. Geosci. J. 16, 421-433). Samples were processed at the University of Washington Cosmogenic Nuclide Laboratory. Chemical processing and purification methods are described at http://depts.washington.edu/cosmolab/chem.shtml. Beryllium isotope ratios were measured at the Lawrence Livermore Center for Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (LLNL-CAMS) relative to the KNSTD-Be-01-5-4 standard, assuming a standard Be-10/Be-9 ratio of 2.851E-12 (07KNSTD normalization). Aluminum isotope ratios were measured at PRIME Lab, Purdue University, relative to the KNSTD-Al-01-5-2 standard, assuming a standard Al-26/Al-27 ratio of 1.818E-12 (KNSTD normalization). Uncertainties are 1-sigma and include full AMS errors and all known sources of laboratory uncertainty. | ["POLYGON((-86.3 -81,-86.17 -81,-86.04 -81,-85.91 -81,-85.78 -81,-85.65 -81,-85.52 -81,-85.39 -81,-85.26 -81,-85.13 -81,-85 -81,-85 -81.03,-85 -81.06,-85 -81.09,-85 -81.12,-85 -81.15,-85 -81.18,-85 -81.21,-85 -81.24,-85 -81.27,-85 -81.3,-85.13 -81.3,-85.26 -81.3,-85.39 -81.3,-85.52 -81.3,-85.65 -81.3,-85.78 -81.3,-85.91 -81.3,-86.04 -81.3,-86.17 -81.3,-86.3 -81.3,-86.3 -81.27,-86.3 -81.24,-86.3 -81.21,-86.3 -81.18,-86.3 -81.15,-86.3 -81.12,-86.3 -81.09,-86.3 -81.06,-86.3 -81.03,-86.3 -81))"] | ["POINT(-85.65 -81.15)"] | false | false |

Antarctica's Geological History Reflected in Sedimentary Radiogenic Isotopes |
This project studies sediment from the ocean floor to understand Antarctica's geologic history. Glacially eroded from the Antarctic continent, these sediments may offer insight into the 99% Antarctica covered by ice. The work's central focus is determining crust formation ages and thermal histories for three key areas of East Antarctica--Prydz Bay, eastern Weddell Sea, and Wilkes Land--through a combination of petrography, bulk sediment geochemistry and radiogenic isotopes, as well as isotope chronology of individual mineral grains. One specific objective is characterizing the composition of the Gamburtsev Mountains through studies of Eocene fluvial sediments from Prydz Bay. In addition to furthering our understanding of the hidden terrains of Antarctica, these terrigenous sediments will also serve as a natural laboratory to evaluate the effects of continental weathering on the Hf/Nd isotope systematics of seawater. An important broader impact of the project is providing exciting research projects for graduate and postdoctoral students using state of the art techniques in geochemistry. | ["POLYGON((60 -60,72 -60,84 -60,96 -60,108 -60,120 -60,132 -60,144 -60,156 -60,168 -60,180 -60,180 -61,180 -62,180 -63,180 -64,180 -65,180 -66,180 -67,180 -68,180 -69,180 -70,168 -70,156 -70,144 -70,132 -70,120 -70,108 -70,96 -70,84 -70,72 -70,60 -70,60 -69,60 -68,60 -67,60 -66,60 -65,60 -64,60 -63,60 -62,60 -61,60 -60))"] | ["POINT(120 -65)"] | false | false |

Collaborative Research: Gases in Firn Air and Shallow Ice at the Proposed WAIS Divide Drilling Site |
This data set includes methane (CH4) isotope data from the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) Divide ice core, WDC05A, in Antarctica. The data include depth, gas age, and the isotopic composition of methane (∂13C and ∂D of CH4). The ice core was collected during the 2005-2006 Antarctic field season. The CH4 isotope data was generated in 2008 using wet extraction methodology. Samples span the last 1,000 years, at a resolution of about 15 years. Data for samples above 69 meters were from firn air, and data below 69 meters from ice. The dating of the ice was based on continuous chemical analyses above 69 meters and Electrical Conductivity/Dielectric Property (ECM/DEP) measurements from ice. Dating uncertainty is estimated to be better than five years.

Stable Isotope Studies at West Antarctic ITASE Sites |
This data set includes stable isotope measurements from snow pits, firn, and ice cores collected by the the US component of the International Trans-Antarctic Scientific Expedition ( ITASE). The ITASE program aims to collect and interpret a continental-wide array of environmental parameters assembled through the coordinated efforts of scientists from several nations. These data were collected between 1999 and 2007. The data have been compiled into single files for each sampling site, though in some cases a file contains data from more than one ice core or snow pit. Each file in the data set includes deuterium/hydrogen (δD) and/or 18-oxygen/16-oxygen (δ18O) ratios, depths, and in some cases ice age or other information. Further details regarding the data are provided in each data file. Data are available via FTP in ASCII text format (.txt). Data were collected during five Antarctic field seasons from 1999 to 2007. Data from 1999 to 2002 are currently available. Data from 2003 to 2007 will be added in the future. | ["POLYGON((-130 -65,-125.8 -65,-121.6 -65,-117.4 -65,-113.2 -65,-109 -65,-104.8 -65,-100.6 -65,-96.4 -65,-92.2 -65,-88 -65,-88 -67.5,-88 -70,-88 -72.5,-88 -75,-88 -77.5,-88 -80,-88 -82.5,-88 -85,-88 -87.5,-88 -90,-92.2 -90,-96.4 -90,-100.6 -90,-104.8 -90,-109 -90,-113.2 -90,-117.4 -90,-121.6 -90,-125.8 -90,-130 -90,-130 -87.5,-130 -85,-130 -82.5,-130 -80,-130 -77.5,-130 -75,-130 -72.5,-130 -70,-130 -67.5,-130 -65))"] | ["POINT(-109 -77.5)"] | false | false |
