A large number of intense cyclones occur every year in the Mediterranean basin, one of the
climate change hotspots. Producing a broad range of severe socio-economic and …

Numerical weather prediction models are very important tools in predicting severe weather
phenomena such as dust storms. However, the prediction accuracy in these models …

This study presents a comprehensive analysis of an extreme dust event recorded in the
Arabian Peninsula and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) between 31 March and 3 April 2015 …

In this paper, we rectify inconsistencies that emerge in the WRF-Chem code when using the
Goddard Chemistry Aerosol Radiation and Transport (GOCART) aerosol module. These …

Abstract Atmospheric dust from North Africa, the largest and most persistently active dust
source over the world, spreads widely in the Northern Hemisphere and plays essential roles …

In this study, we investigate a series of Saharan dust outbreaks toward the Mediterranean
basin that occurred in late June 2021. In particular, we analyze the effect of mineral dust …

In this study, WRF-Chem was used to analyze the radiative forcing, deposition, emission and
transport of mineral dust during three severe dust events in central Iran, specifically in Yazd …

This study aims to enhance the accuracy of the Weather Research and Forecasting model
coupled with Chemistry (WRF-Chem) in forecasting Asian dust storms (ADSs) by using the …

Grid options are computational parameters that lead to proper numerical accuracy in air
quality simulation and their selection is challenging. Therefore, the present study intends to …

Atmospheric mineral dust deposition plays an important role in providing nutrients to marine
ecosystems. In this study, the climatology of dust deposition in the Adriatic Sea area was …
