Abstract High‐latitude dust (HLD) depositions on four glaciers of James Ross Island (the Ulu Peninsula) were analysed. The deposition rate on the selected glaciers varies from 11.8 to 64.0 g m −2 , which is one order of magnitude higher compared to the glaciers in Antarctica or elsewhere in the worl...
