Atmospheric aerosols play an important role on the radiative properties of the atmosphere. They are also key factors for air quality and public health in polluted areas. As a result of the strong decrease of SO2 emissions over the last three decades, organic aerosol now represents a more important part of atmospheric aerosol. The nature of this organic fraction is complex and until now less than a half of it has been chemically identified. Water Soluble HUmic LIke Substances (HULISWS) are an important contributor to water soluble organic aerosol with a mass fraction ranging from 20 to 50%. The aim of this work is to design a method to measure HULISWS in ice cores. The application of this method to an ice core extracted at the col du Dôme (4...
