Scientific paper

Isotopic (Sr and Nd) and mineralogical analyses of dust extracted from snow deposits from the last decade at the NorthGRIP, Greenland, ice camp (75.1°N, 042.3°W) confirm the eastern Asian source for Greenland dust and extend it to the present day. The 1998 and 1999 samples, which represent a ~2.4 month resolution of dust deposition, show that there are at least two east Asian sources for the Greenland dust that vary seasonally. The provenance of dust during the major, spring/summer deposition is the Takla Makan desert of northwest China.
