Erosion by wind is one of the principal processes associated with land degradation in
drylands and is a significant concern to land managers and policymakers globally. In the …

Contaminants can be transported rapidly and over relatively long distances by atmospheric
dust and aerosol relative to other media such as water, soil and biota; yet few studies have …

We developed a dynamic multimedia fate and transport model (nanoFate) to predict the time-
dependent accumulation of metallic engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) across …

Studies of ecosystem processes on the Jornada Experimental Range in southern New
Mexico suggest that long-term grazing of semiarid grasslands leads to an increase in the …

The purpose of develo** an integrated wind-erosion modelling system (IWEMS) is to
produce quantitative predictions of wind erosion on scales from local to global. The system …

It is more than half a century since the publication of RA Bagnold's classic book The physics
of blown sand and desert dunes, and it is a tribute to the quality of Bagnold's work that many …

Aeolian Dust and Dust Deposits explores the entrainment, dispersion, and deposition of
aeolian dust and dust deposits, with emphasis on transport and deposition of dust derived …

The plate tectonics revolution in the earth sciences has provided a valuable new framework
for understanding long-term landform development. This innovative text provides a …

Predicting the morphodynamics of sedimentary landscapes due to fluvial and aeolian flows
requires answering the following questions: Is the flow strong enough to initiate sediment …

Dust storms, produced by the removal of surface materials from the world's drylands, are a
vital component of the environment. This is because of their role in biogeochemical cycling …
