Table 3.

Total carbon (TC(s)), total nitrogen (TN(s)), and total sulfur (TS(s)) (all based on % of dry weight of sample) as well as the nitrogen isotope values from the analyzed particulates in the 2012 and 2013 collected red snow and gray ice samples that contained enough particulate material for analyses; listed are also the solid C/N(s) ratio calculated from TC and TN values.
