The lead pollution history of Law Dome, Antarctica, from isotopic measurements on ice cores: 1500 AD to 1989 AD

Lead isotopic compositions and Pb and Ba concentrations have been measured in ice cores from Law Dome, East Antarctica, covering the past 6500 years. ‘Natural’ background concentrations of Pb (0.4 pg/g) and Ba (1.3 pg/g) are observed until 1884 AD, after which increased Pb concentrations and lowered...
