A 160 m ice core (Core 1) was recovered from Eclipse Icefield, St. Elias Mountains, Yukon, Canada, (60.51°N, 139.47°W, 3017 m elevation) in 1996. Two additional cores, 345m (Core 2) and 130m (Core 3) in length, were recovered in 2002.

Two ice cores (118.4 and 214.7 m in length) were collected in 2000 from the Puruogangri ice cap in the center of the Tibetan Plateau (TP) in a joint US-Chinese collaborative project. These cores yield paleoclimatic and environmental records extending through the Middle Holocene. The high-resolution Puruogangri climate record since AD 1600 details regional temperature and moisture variability.
