Data from the DUST^2 Project, Collectors DUST-1 through DUST-17, winter 2020-21 and summer 2021
Abstract:
Geochemical (ICP-MS) analyses of mineral dust collected by Jeff Munroe (Middlebury College) in the winter of 2020-21 and the summer of 2021. Dust flux rates, colors, and grain size distributions are also presented. Samples were collected as part of the DUST^2 Critical Zone Thematic Cluster to constrain the properties and flux of dust to alpine ecosystem in the southwestern US (Utah and Nevada). Sample remaining after analysis is stored at the Natural History Museum of Utah in Salt Lake City. To access these samples for further analysis, please contact Mitchell Power (mitchell.power@geog.utah.edu) and with cc to Jeff Munroe (jmunroe@middlebury.edu).
