Contrasting mineral dust abundances from X-ray diffraction and reflectance spectroscopy

<p>Mineral dust particles dominate aerosol mass in the atmosphere and directly modify Earth's radiative balance through absorption and scattering. This radiative forcing varies strongly with mineral composition, yet there is still limited knowledge on the mineralogy of atmospheric dust. I...
