2011-05-03 Another paper from Steve, giving a nice overview of blue ice fields, mostly in relation to meteorites (better images than Steve's copy) [|Cassidy_Meteorite_collection_Antarctica.pdf]

Early earth: Snowballs limited by weathering

A. Joshua West

doi:10.1038/ngeo1330

A series of extreme cooling episodes, starting 750 million years ago,

could have repeatedly turned the planet into an ice-covered snowball.

Carbon cycle modelling suggests that the timing of the glaciations can

be explained by chemical weathering rates.
