Effects of black carbon and mineral dust on glacial melting on the Muz Taw glacier, Central Asia
Abstract Light-absorbing impurities (LAIs), including black carbon (BC) and mineral dust, in
snow can trigger a positive feedback. In this study, we estimate the contribution of BC and …

Using iron stable isotopes to quantify the origins of the cryoconite iron materials in western China and exploring controlling factors
Iron (Fe) has profound impacts on Earth's ecosystem and global biogeochemical cycles. Fe
deposited onto glacier surfaces reduces snow and ice albedo, thereby accelerating glacier …
