Global connections between aeolian dust, climate and ocean biogeochemistry at the present day and at the last glacial maximum
Palaeo-dust records in sediments and ice cores show that wind-borne mineral aerosol
('dust') is strongly linked with climate state. During glacial climate stages, for example, the …

Dust-climate couplings over the past 800,000 years from the EPICA Dome C ice core
Dust can affect the radiative balance of the atmosphere by absorbing or reflecting incoming
solar radiation; it can also be a source of micronutrients, such as iron, to the ocean. It has …
