Alpine Ice‐Core Evidence of a Large Increase in Vanadium and Molybdenum Pollution in Western Europe During the 20th Century
Arienzo, Monica M.; Legrand, Michel; Preunkert, Susanne; Stohl, Andreas; Chellman, Nathan J; Eckhardt, Sabine; Gleason, Kelly E.; McConnell, Joseph R. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Pollutants emitted by industrial processes are deposited across the landscape. Ice core records from mid-latitude glaciers located close to emission sources document the history of local-to-regional pollution since ... -
Cadmium pollution from zinc‐smelters up to four‐fold higher than expected in western Europe in the 1980s as revealed by alpine ice
Legrand, Michel; McConnell, Joseph; Lestel, L.; Preunkert, Susanne; Arienzo, Monica M; Chellman, Nathan J; Stohl, Andreas; Eckhardt, Sabine (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Estimates of past emission inventories suggest that toxic heavy metal pollution in Europe was highest in the mid‐1970s for lead and in the mid‐1960s for cadmium, but these previous estimates have not been compared to ... -
Consistent histories of anthropogenic western European air pollution preserved in different Alpine ice cores
Eichler, Anja; Legrand, Michel; Jenk, Theo M.; Preunkert, Susanne; Andersson, Camilla; Eckhardt, Sabine; Engardt, Magnuz; Plach, Andreas; Schwikowski, Margit (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Individual high-Alpine ice cores have been proven to contain a well-preserved history of past anthropogenic air pollution in western Europe. The question of how representative one ice core is with respect to the reconstruction ... -
Lead and Antimony in Basal Ice From Col du Dome (French Alps) Dated With Radiocarbon: A Record of Pollution During Antiquity
Preunkert, Susanne; McConnell, Joseph R.; Hoffmann, Helene; Legrand, Michel; Wilson, Andrew I.; Eckhardt, Sabine; Stohl, Andreas; Chellman, Nathan J; Arienzo, Monica M; Friedrich, Ronny (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019) -
Thallium Pollution in Europe Over the Twentieth Century Recorded in Alpine Ice: Contributions From Coal Burning and Cement Production
Legrand, Michel; McConnell, Joseph R.; Preunkert, Susanne; Bergametti, Gilles; Chellman, Nathan J; Desboeufs, Karine; Stohl, Andreas; Eckhardt, Sabine; Plach, Andreas (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Emission inventories indicate that thallium, a highly toxic metal, is emitted during coal burning and cement production. These estimates have been established only for the 1980s and 1990s but up to now they have not been ...
