Water isotope data for the full Skytrain Ice Rise ice core obtained using discrete samples, and used to calculate deuterium excess

This dataset consists of water isotope data (δ18O and δD) for the entire 651 m from the ice core drilled in 2018-19 at Skytrain Ice Rise (79.7417°S 78.545°W), Antarctica. The top 2.83 m are from a snowpit. Remaining data in doi:10.1594/PANGAEA.973166 are from water sampled continuously from the melt stream of a continuous flow analysis (CFA) system (data labelled as CFA), and are presented at 20 cm resolution where data exist. Discrete samples (see doi:10.1594/PANGAEA.973167) were also taken both as a check, and in areas where the CFA data are missing; these data are suitable for calculating deuterium excess. Data were measured using a Picarro L2130-i cavity ringdown spectrometer. Note the that top 418 m have previously been archived at 10 cm resolution (as doi:10.1594/PANGAEA.966226)
