Summary
Lead as an ultra-trace heavy metal is becoming one of the most popular topics in glaciochemistry of the Antarctic ice sheet because of its very low concentration and very great sensitivity to the quality of the environment. Lead concentration tends to be lower in western Antarctica than in eastern Antarctica. Specific data are given.
