Abstract
A series of inelastic incoherent neutron scattering measurements were made on TOSCA at ISIS for the Greenland ice core at depths of 200-5500 m which represent the ages of the samples from 1 to 1000 K years. The measurements show that there is no clear difference among the spectra for the Greenland ices at different depths and the normal ice Ih within the statistics and instrumental resolution errors. This result contradicts to a recent report of similar measurements for Antarctic ice core, where the authors reported the proton ordering in this ice, with the structure similar to ice XI (an ordered form of ice Ih).
