Happy faces all around! Today is the third day in a row we see dust in the Dyngjusandur area. It is THE dust spot in Iceland – and the reason why we are will spend two month somewhere in nowhere.
During the afternoon, individual dust plumes merge into a decent haze layer drifting with the wind. In particular in the middle\u00a0Fl\u00e6\u00f0ur region we observe lots of individual events … until the water floods the river bed and shuts of the dust source until the next day.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paradise is still not so super dusty. However, we do have individual dust plumes and devils paying our instruments a visit. Still a bit shy, though.

Some of our OPC stations are now additionally equipped with two different types of passive dust samplers: Sedimentation plates, a sticky filter disk aligned horizontally in the air flow collecting dust particles suspended in the air overflowing the disk, and passive dust samples, that collects dust from the air flow in a bottle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Passive dust sampler finally mounted! It will collect dust from the air in a bottle attached to the vane. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
