Air pollution has been a serious environmental problem in China that damages human
health and causes climate change. While air pollution has been extensively investigated …

East Asian dust (EAD) exerts considerable impacts on the energy balance and
climate/climate change of the earth system through its influence on solar and terrestrial …

Particulate Matter (PM) is an important indicator of the degree of air pollution. The PM type
and the ratio of coarse and fine PM particles determine the ability to affect human health and …

China has been seriously affected by particulate matter (PM) and gaseous pollutants in the
atmosphere. In this study, we systematically analyse the spatio-temporal patterns of PM 2.5 …

Every spring, a large part of China is confronted with sand and dust storms (SDS)–mainly
originating in the Gobi (including Chinese and Mongolian Gobi) and Taklamakan deserts. In …

Atmospheric aerosols can exert an influence on meteorology and air quality through aerosol–
radiation interaction (ARI) and aerosol–cloud interaction (ACI), and this two-way feedback …

We analyzed the frequency and intensity of sand and dust storms (SDSs) in East Asia from
2007 to 2016 using observational data from ground stations, numerical modeling, and …

Abstract The Taklimakan Desert (TD) and Gobi Desert (GD) are two of the most important
dust sources in East Asia, and have important impact on energy budgets, ecosystems and …

Studies conducted at the beginning of this century revealed a warming and humidification
trend in northwest China, which lasted for a short period, with some minor variations. The …

As the main dust source area in East Asia, the Gobi Desert (GD) exerts critical impacts on
the radiation budget in downstream regions. Dust radiative feedback in the GD on the …
