African desert dust is emitted and long-range transported with multiple effects on climate, air
quality, cryosphere, and ecosystems. On 21–23 February 2021, dust from a sand and dust …

Desert dust and sand storms from the Sahara can sometimes be transported thousands of
kilometers, causing social and economic damages throughout their path, deteriorating the …

This study provides evidence for the multiscale nature of atmospheric rivers (ARs) by
differentiating them based on high‐(HF) and low‐frequency (LF) moisture transports. The HF …

Surfaces, both water/air and solid/water, play an important role in mediating a multitude of
processes central to atmospheric chemistry, particularly in the aerosol phase. However, the …

Atmospheric rivers (ARs) are narrow, elongated, transient corridors of enhanced water vapor
transport that play important roles in the global water cycle. Increasing scientific and societal …

Saharan dust outbreaks have profound effects on ecosystems, climate, human health, and
the cryosphere in Europe. However, the spatial deposition pattern of Saharan dust is poorly …

Wind-blown dust (WBD) emitted by the Earth's surface due to sandblasting can potentially
have important effects on both climate and human health via interaction with solar and …

Observational and reanalysis datasets reveal a northward shift of the convective regions
over northern Africa in summer and an eastward shift in winter in the last four decades, with …

Abstract On 2–3 October 2020, a heavy precipitation event severely affected northern Italy
and in particular the western Alps, with rainfall amount exceeding 600 mm over 24 h. This …
