Dust record from the EPICA Dome C ice core, Antarctica, covering 0 to 800 kyr BP ...
Dust can affect the radiative balance of the atmosphere by absorbing or reflecting incoming solar radiation and it can be a source of micronutrients, such as iron, to the ocean. It has been suggested that production, transport, and deposition of dust is influenced by climatic changes on glacial-inte...

We find that there is a significant correlation between dust flux and temperature records during glacial periods that is absent during interglacial periods.
