Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. NEEM Camp is a small research facility on the northern Greenland Ice Sheet, used as a base for ice core drilling. It is located about 313 km east of the closest coast, Peabody Bay in northern Greenland, 275 km northwest of the historical ice sheet camp North Ice, and 484 km ENE of Siorapaluk, the closest settlement. There is only one heavy-duty tent for accommodation of the researchers during summer. Access is by skiway (snow runway). Coordinates: 79°N 50°W / 79°N…mehr

NEEM Camp is a small research facility on the northern Greenland Ice Sheet, used as a base for ice core drilling. It is located about 313 km east of the closest coast, Peabody Bay in northern Greenland, 275 km northwest of the historical ice sheet camp North Ice, and 484 km ENE of Siorapaluk, the closest settlement. There is only one heavy-duty tent for accommodation of the researchers during summer. Access is by skiway (snow runway). Coordinates: 79°N 50°W / 79°N 50°W / 79; -50 The acronym NEEM stands for North Greenland Eemian Ice Drilling. The ice at the NEEM coring location (77°27''N 51°3.6''W) may be 2545 m thick. Drilling started at NEEM in June 2009 and drillers expect to hit bedrock in 2010. The drilling progressed well and reached through the brittle zone (~800 m) in mid-July. The plan is to process the ice below the brittle zone, per decision at the steering committee meeting in November 2008 in Copenhagen.
