Snow?Dust Storm: Unique case study from Iceland, March 6?7, 2013
Original language description
Iceland is an active dust source in the high-latitude cold region. About 50% of the annual dust events in the southern part of Iceland take place at sub-zero temperatures or in winter, when dust may be mixed with snow. We investigated one winter dust event that occurred in March 2013. It resulted in a several mm thick dark layer of dust deposited on snow. Dust was transported over 250 km causing impurities on snow in the capital of Iceland, Reykjavik. Max one-minute PM10 concentration measured in Kirkjubajarklaustur (20?50 km from the dust source) exceeded 6500 ?g m-3 while the mean (median) PM10 concentration during 24-h storm was 1281 (1170) ?g m-3. Dust concentrations during the dust deposition in Reykjavik were only about 100 ?g m-3, suggesting a rapid removal of the dust particles by snow during the transport. Dust sample taken from the snow top layer in Reykjavik after the storm showed that about 75% of the dust deposit was a volcanic glass with SiO2 ~45%, FeO ~14.5%, and TiO2 ~3
