[HTML][HTML] The size distribution of desert dust aerosols and its impact on the Earth system
The global cycle of desert dust aerosols responds strongly to climate and human
perturbations, and, in turn, impacts climate and biogeochemistry. Here we focus on desert …

A review of coarse mineral dust in the Earth system
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 …

The mysterious long-range transport of giant mineral dust particles
Giant mineral dust particles (> 75 μm in diameter) found far from their source have long
puzzled scientists. These wind-blown particles affect the atmosphere's radiation balance …

[LIVRE][B] Desert dust in the global system
AS Goudie, NJ Middleton - 2006 - books.google.com
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 …

Global connections between aeolian dust, climate and ocean biogeochemistry at the present day and at the last glacial maximum
Palaeo-dust records in sediments and ice cores show that wind-borne mineral aerosol
('dust') is strongly linked with climate state. During glacial climate stages, for example, the …
