Northwestern Pacific tropical cyclone activity enhanced by increased Asian dust emissions during the Little Ice Age [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2022 Here, the authors show that enhanced tropical cyclone activity was synchronized with increased Asian dust emissions during the Little Ice Age, implying a mechanism linking tropical cyclone climatology to Asian dust levels, at 100 to 1000 year scales.

Radiative feedbacks of dust in snow over eastern Asia in CAM4-BAM [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2018 Dust in snow on the Tibetan Plateau (TP) could reduce the visible snow albedo by changing surface optical properties and removing the snow cover through increased snowmelt, which leads to a significant positive radiative forcing and remarkably alters ...

Global dispersion of bacterial cells on Asian dust. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2012 The atmospheric dispersion of bacteria over long distances is an important facet of microbial ecology. Certain groups of dispersed bacteria can adapt to their new location and affect established ecosystems. Aeolian dust particles are known to be carriers of microbes but further research is needed to expand our understanding of this field of ...
