The iBox-FC: A new containment vessel for Itrax X-ray fluorescence core-scanning of freeze cores

Abstract

A combination of Itrax micro-X-ray fluorescence core scanning (μXRF-CS) and freeze coring can facilitate the development of high-resolution (e.g. sub-decadal) paleoclimate records in lacustrine systems where low sedimentation rates and poorly consolidated “colloidal soup” at the sediment/water interface prevents retrieval and Itrax-μXRF-CS analysis of undisturbed cores using conventional gravity corers. The iBox-FC containment vessel described …
