This study investigates the impact of dust on radiation over the Arabian Peninsula (AP)
during the reported high, low, and normal dust seasons (March–August) of 2012, 2014, and …

This study assesses the aerosol optical depth (AOD) from historical simulations (2003–
2014) and future climate scenarios (2015–2100) of the Coupled Model Intercomparison …

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 …

Roughness features (eg, rocks, vegetation, furrows) that shelter or attenuate wind flow over
the soil surface can considerably affect the magnitude and spatial distribution of sediment …

Large-scale dust storms lifted by strong winds into the atmosphere may adversely affect
local weather and climate. One such major dust storm occurred in January 2022 over the …

The growth of vegetation in desert areas is expected to cause considerable changes to the
local climate. Compared to bare ground desert, the balance of different processes related to …

Lockdowns imposed across the world to combat the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic also
reduced the anthropogenic emissions. This study investigates the changes in the …

Wildfire frequency has increased in the Western US over recent decades, driven by climate
change and a legacy of forest management practices. Consequently, human structures …

Dust activity during the pre-monsoon season in Africa has an impact on the monsoon
circulation and the Atlantic hurricane season. During early June 2023 the atmosphere was …

Changing climate has substantially altered the spatio-temporal rainfall pattern, especially
