Byrd Polar and Climate Research Center Ice Core Paleoclimatology Datasets in a Standardized Excel Format

All published datasets from the ice core paleoclimatology (ICP) group at the Byrd Polar and Climate Research Center (BPCRC) are archived in the NOAA-NCEI Paleoclimatology Database (https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/paleo-search/?dataTypeId=7). However, the formatting of these datasets is not consistent across the archival files, making it difficult to download and aggregate multiple datasets for research purposes. This repository is intended to provide a simple, consistently formatted archive of Excel files containing the published data for more than 16 ice core records collected by the BPCRC-ICP group since the 1980s. These files can be accessed directly in MATLAB with the assistance of the Byrd-ICP Data App, downloadable on Github (https://github.com/weber1158/Byrd-ICP-Data-App). The file "2023-ByrdICP-datasets.xlsx " contains a column for each ice core location and a list of the sheet names within the corresponding Excel file for that ice core location.美国伯德极地与气候研究中心（Byrd Polar and Climate Research Center, BPCRC）冰芯古气候学（Ice Core Paleoclimatology, ICP）团队已发表的全部数据集，均归档于NOAA-NCEI古气候数据库（https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/paleo-search/?dataTypeId=7）。然而，各归档文件内的数据集格式并不统一，为科研用途下的多数据集下载与整合工作带来了阻碍。本数据集仓库旨在提供格式统一的简易归档Excel文件，内含该团队自20世纪80年代以来采集的16条以上冰芯记录的已发表数据。 用户可借助可在GitHub下载的Byrd-ICP数据应用程序（下载链接：https://github.com/weber1158/Byrd-ICP-Data-App），直接在MATLAB中访问上述文件。 文件"2023-ByrdICP-datasets.xlsx"包含对应各冰芯采样点的列，以及该冰芯采样点对应Excel文件内的工作表名称列表。
