Ice core drilling on Hofsjökull Eðlilegt virðist að þróa fyrst bortækni og aðferðir til aldursgreiningar með borun grunnkjarna (100-200 m) og huga að möguleikum til djúpborana síðar meir. Auk hábungu Hofsjökuls eru eftirtaldir staðir álitlegir til grunnborana: 1. Ishella Grímsvatna. Þar hefur vetrarákoma verið mæld um hálfrar aldar skeið og yrðu þau gögn ákjósanleg til samanburðar við aldursgreindan ís- kjarna. Einnig mundi fást þar mikilsverð reynsla af borun gegnum þykk gjóskulög. 2. Norðurbunga Langjökuls. Isþykkt er þar aðeins rúmlega 200 m og mætti þar afla reynslu við borun niður á jökulbotn. Til djúpborana koma aðeins til greina staðir þar sem jökull er þykkur og ákoma í minna lagi, enda eru þar mestar líkur á að ná elsta ís, sem til er í jöklum landsins. Sem dæmi um vænlega borstaði má nefna öskjurnar undir Hofsjökli. í Bárðarbungu og á Kverk- fjallasvæðinu. REFERENCES Árnason, B. 1969.
