Patterson s friend Edward D. Goldberg at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography in La Jolla, California, had tipped him off that one of the best records of the world s climate is embedded in thin layers of glacial ice at high altitudes or near the poles. Snow, dust, and fog deposit chemicals from the atmosphere onto the ice, where they remain undisturbed for thousands of years. As Patterson quickly realized, Only the quiescent ice sheets in the arid, perpetually frozen polar regions of the Earth provide annual layers of precipitation that are undisturbed by percolation and mechanical mixing, that are relatively free of dusts and salts, and also are thin enough to be accessible even when centuries old. ... 

The number of scientific articles published on meteorites has increased dramatically in the last few years few of these, however, concern themselves with small meteorites, the size of which lies between that of the normal meteorites (from centimetres to metres in size) and that of interplanetary dust particles. In the course of an Antarctic expedition, scientists (mainly from French institutions) collected micrometeorites from 100 tons of Antarctic blue ice (Maurette et al 1991). These micrometeorites were only 100 400 pm in size five samples, each consisting of 30-35 particles, were studied to determine the amount of the extraterrestrial amino acids a-aminoisobutyric acid (AIBS) and isovaline—both of which are extremely rare on Earth—which they contained. The analysis was carried out using a well-tested and extremely sensitive HPLC system at the Scripps Institute, La Jolla. Although the micrometeorites came from an extremely clean environment, the samples must have been contaminated, as they all showed traces of L-amino acids. Only one sample showed a significantly higher concentration of AIBS (about 280 ppm). The AIBS/isovaline ratio in the samples also lay considerably above that previously found in CM-chondrites.

Tin concentrations in algae collected near the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, Calif, and in coastal marine sediments from Narragansett Bay, USA, were determined by Hodge and coworkers42. Tin concentrations of the blades of Pelagophycus porra, Macrocystis pyrifera and Eisenia arborea were 0.71 0.01, 0.83 0.01 and 1.06 0.02 i-gSng 1 dry wt., respectively. Tin concentrations in the core of sediments are shown in Table 8.

Andrew Dickson (Chair) is an Associate Professor-in-Residence at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography. His research focuses on the analytical chemistry of carbon dioxide in sea water, biogeochemical cycles in the upper ocean, marine inorganic chemistry, and the thermodynamics of electrolyte solutions at high temperatures and pressures. His expertise lies in the quality control of oceanic carbon dioxide measurements and in the development of underway instrumentation for the study of upper ocean biogeochemistry. Dr. Dickson served on the NRC Committee on Oceanic Carbon. He is presently a member of the IOC C02 Advisory Panel and of the PICES Working Group 13 on C02 in the North Pacific.

Enantioselective aldol reactions also can be used to create arrays of stereogenic centers. Two elegant ot-amino anion approaches have recently been published. Fujie Tanaka and Carlos F. Barbas III of the Scripps Institute, La Jolla, have shown (Org. Lett. 2004,6,3541) that L-proline catalyzes the addition of the aldehyde 6 to other aldehydes with high enantio- and diastereocontroJ. Keiji Maruoka of Kyoto University has developed (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2004,126,9685) a chiral phase transfer catalyst that mediates the addition of the ester 9 to aldehydes, again with high enantio- and diastcrcocontrol.
