This list includes about half of the samples measured during the last year. Many studies need further investigation and the results will be published later when additional information will make better interpretations possible.

The equipment and the technique is essentially the same as described earlier (Bern IV).

Reliable results on CO2 samples extracted out of ice are obtained with the small counter mentioned in Bern IV.

Our laboratory is financed by the Schweizerischer Nationalfonds. The authors wish to thank H. Loosli and P. Horisberger for their assistance in the measurements of part of the samples. They also thank M. Welten and H.-G. Bandi for their help in selecting and discussing the samples.
