Scientific paper

Nitrate flux has been determined in the snow sequence deposited at Windless Bight on the Ross Ice Shelf (Antarctica). The data were obtained from on-site analysis of nitrate concentrations from a glaciological pit and a firn core spanning the time interval from midwinter 1971 to January 1986. The high resolution data can be combined with precipitation records collected from adjacent areas to provide a record of nitrate flow. The resulting time series contains a signal which corresponds to the two major solar events of 1972 and 1984. The concentration and flux profiles may be useful in studies of Antarctic ozone depletion.
