A key challenge in modeling dust emissions is to represent the location and strength of dust
sources. One critical aspect of dust sources that is not well understood and thus not …

Modeled estimates of eolian dust emission can vary by an order of magnitude due to the
spatiotemporal heterogeneity of emissions. To better constrain location and magnitude of …

To improve the aeolian dust budget calculations with the global ECHAM/MESSy
atmospheric chemistry–climate model (EMAC), which combines the Modular Earth …

Dust plumes emitted from the narrow Arabian Red Sea coastal plain are often observed on
satellite images and felt in local population centers. Despite its relatively small area, the …

Soil fugitive dust (SFD) is an important contributor to ambient particulate matter (PM), but
most current SFD emission inventories are updated slowly or have low resolution. In areas …

Particulate matter (PM) is considered one of the major contributors to air pollution, posing
adverse health effects (WHO, 2016) according to studies that have linked PM10 (particles …

abstract Large amounts of mineral dust are injected into the atmosphere during dust storms,
which are common in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) where most of the global …
