High quality records of stratospheric volcanic eruptions, required to model past climate variability, have been constructed by identifying synchronous (bipolar) volcanic sulfate horizons in Greenland and Antarctic ice cores. Here we present a new 2600-year chronology of stratospheric volcanic events using an independent approach that relies on isotopic signatures (Δ<sup>33</sup>S and in some cases Δ<sup>17</sup>O) of ice core sulfate from five closely-located ice cores from Dome C, Antarctica.
