Cover Story: In the Northern Hemisphere, high-latitude dust can induce significant direct and indirect radiative climate forcing through solar radiation fluxes, cloud changes and snow/ice optical characteristics, strongly impacting Arctic amplification and the resulting glacier melt. Iceland, with its vast active dust emission areas, year-round strong winds and high frequency of dust days, is one of the most important high-latitude dust areas in the Northern Hemisphere. Despite this, studies assessing the mineralogical and the geochemical fingerprints of Icelandic dust are rare. This study used an integrated individual particle analysis and Lagrangian approach to assess the likelihood of Icelandic dust presence in Arctic aerosols. Ternary geochemical diagrams were developed, providing a reliable tool for distinguishing the dust sources. View this paper
