Better representation of dust can improve climate models with too weak an African monsoon

Yves Balkanski et al.

Summary: The study developed a more accurate representation of dust absorption based on observed mineralogical composition, leading to significant improvements in tropical precipitation patterns. This provides a pathway towards enhancing precipitation patterns in these regions by realistically accounting for both physical and optical properties of the aerosol.

Improved representation of the global dust cycle using observational constraints on dust properties and abundance

Jasper F. Kok et al.

Summary: The researchers developed a new methodology using inverse modeling to improve the representation of the global dust cycle, finding that the emission flux of dust is greater than many models account for. Their results show the need for more accurate datasets to quantify the impact of dust on the Earth system.

ModIs Dust AeroSol (MIDAS): a global fine-resolution dust optical depth data set

Antonis Gkikas et al.

Summary: Monitoring and describing the spatiotemporal variability in dust aerosols is crucial for understanding their effects, feedbacks, and impacts within the Earth system. The MIDAS data set provides global daily dust optical depth data at fine spatial resolution over a 15-year period, combining satellite AOD retrievals with DOD-to-AOD ratios from reanalysis to derive DOD on the MODIS native grid. The uncertainties of the data set are taken into account for estimation of total DOD uncertainty, with good agreement and some deviations when compared to other monitoring sources.
