Linking the Different Diameter Types of Aspherical Desert Dust Indicates That Models Underestimate Coarse Dust Emission

Yue Huang et al.

Summary: Accurate conversions between different diameter types of dust aerosols are critical, especially considering the aspherical shape of dust particles. Current optical particle counters underestimate dust geometric diameter at coarse sizes, leading to substantial underestimation of coarse dust emissions by global aerosol models. This highlights the need for improved measurements and models to better understand the emission and impact of dust aerosols.

Gentle Topography Increases Vertical Transport of Coarse Dust by Orders of Magnitude

Michael Heisel et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that topography significantly impacts the vertical transport of coarse dust particles, allowing them to reach higher altitudes and be further transported into the free atmosphere by large-scale motions. Multiple mechanisms contribute to this increased vertical transport, providing a pathway for dust particles emitted from the surface to reach elevations where they can be further transported by convective plumes.
