Mineral dust particles suspended in the atmosphere span more than three orders of
magnitude in diameter, from< 0.1 µm to more than 100 µm. This wide size range makes dust …

Atmospheric ice‐nucleating particles (INPs) play a critical role in cloud freezing processes,
with important implications for precipitation formation and cloud radiative properties, and …

Ice particle formation in tropospheric clouds significantly changes cloud radiative and
microphysical properties. Ice nucleation in the troposphere via homogeneous freezing …

Airborne mineral dust particles can act as natural seeds for cirrus clouds in the upper
troposphere. However, the atmospheric abundance of dust is unconstrained in cirrus …

Mineral dust impacts key processes in the Earth system, including the radiation budget,
clouds, and nutrient cycles. We evaluate dust aerosols in 16 models participating in the sixth …

We review the major features of desert dust outbreaks that are relevant to the assessment of
dust impacts upon human health. Our ultimate goal is to provide scientific guidance for the …

Risks associated with dust hazards are often underappreciated, a gap between the
knowledge pool and public awareness that can be costly for impacted communities. This …

Primary biological aerosol particles (PBAP) play an important role in the climate system,
facilitating the formation of ice within clouds, consequently PBAP may be important in …

The Anthropocene is a major new concept in the Earth sciences and this book examines the
effects on geomorphology within this period. Drawing examples from many different global …
