-Although the point of the ICE-D project is to assemble any and all cosmogenic-nuclide data, we make this project more manageable by structuring it around [[domains:start|a set of specific Earth science applications]]. Assembling all the data needed for focused science applications one at a time makes it possible to go from zero to useful a lot faster than trying to do the whole world at once.  Some examples are the [[http://www.ice-d.org/antarctica/|ICE-D:ANTARCTICA]], [[http://www.ice-d.org/alpine|ICE-D:ALPINE]], [[http://www.ice-d.org/production%20rate%20calibration|ICE-D:PRODUCTION RATE CALIBRATION]], and [[http://www-d.org/greenland|ICE-D:GREENLAND]] databases. +Although the point of the ICE-D project is to assemble any and all cosmogenic-nuclide data, we make this project more manageable by structuring it around [[domains:start|a set of specific Earth science applications]].
