A full understanding of the Asian dust cycle can help with evaluation of the profound impact
of mineral dust on human health, the ecosystem, the terrestrial and oceanic biogeochemical …

Dust aerosols impact global energy balance substantially by acting as efficient ice nuclei to
alter cold cloud properties. However, the estimate of dust indirect effect remains uncertain …

Mineral dust produced by wind erosion of arid and semiarid surfaces is a major component
of atmospheric aerosol that affects climate, weather, ecosystems, and socioeconomic …

Long-range transport of North African and Middle Eastern dust has been frequently
observed in East Asia. However, understanding of their characteristics and effects in this …

Nowadays, dried lake beds constitute the largest source of saline dust storms, with serious
environmental and health issues in the surrounding areas. In this study, we examined the …

Dust aerosols have great effects on global and regional climate systems. The Global
Change Observation Mission-Climate (GCOM-C), also known as SHIKISAI, which was …

A near-real-time automatic detection system, based on the synergy of continuous
measurements taken by a ceilometer and a photometer, has been implemented in order to …

Every year, large quantities of dust are transported from North Africa to the Americas,
Europe, and West Asia. The purpose of this study is to analyze four intense and pervasive …

The column-averaged, dry air mole fractions of CO2 and CH4 (XCO2 and XCH4,
respectively) were retrieved from short-wavelength infrared (SWIR) spectra observed by the …

The planetary boundary layer height is a very important parameter in the atmosphere
because it determines the range where the most effective dispersion processes take place …
