Laird, C.M., Zeller, E.J., Armstrong, T.P. and Parker, B.C. (1982). Solar activity and nitrate deposition in south pole snow. Geophysical Research Letters 9: doi: 10.1029/GL009i010p01195. issn: 0094-8276.

For the past 51 years nitrate deposition in snow and firn layers at the South Pole exhibits a significant linear relationship with sunspot numbers and the 'aa' index of geomagnetic activity. Currently known atmospheric processes may explain these results. A high resolution nitrate record from deep ice cores could be valuable for both Sun and climate studies.
