By Core Science Systems

The National Science Foundation Ice Core Facility (NSF-ICF) is located at the Denver Federal Center in Colorado. The Facility is managed and operated by the U.S. Geological Survey for the National Science Foundation.

The National Science Foundation Ice Core Facility (NSF-ICF) is a facility for storing, curating, and studying meteoric ice cores recovered from the glaciated regions of the world. NSF-ICF provides scientists with the capability to conduct examinations and measurements on ice cores, and it preserves the integrity of these ice cores in a long-term repository for future investigations.
