Trans-pacific dust transport: integrated analysis of NASA/CALIPSO and a global aerosol transport model [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2009
Detailed 3-D structures of Trans-Pacific Asian dust transport occurring during 5–15 May 2007 were investigated using the NASA/CALIOP vertical-resolved measurements and a three-dimensional aerosol model (SPRINTARS).

A climatology of Northeast Asian dust events

Meteorologische Zeitschrift, 2003
In this paper, the synoptic features of Northeast Asian dust events in spring are studied. Using surface meteorological records for March, April and May of 2000, 2001 and 2002, the distribution of dust-event frequencies, possible dust-source regions and the synoptic conditions responsible for dust activities are examined.

Large Asian dust layers continuously reached North America in April 2010 [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2011
The NASA space-borne Mie-lidar system CALIPSO/CALIOP revealed that multiple large Asian dust layers with a horizontal scale of 2000–3000 km reached North America, occupying the full troposphere, in April 2010.

Observations of heterogeneous reactions between Asian pollution and mineral dust over the Eastern North Pacific during INTEX-B [PDF]

, 2009
In-situ airborne measurements of trace gases, aerosol size distributions, chemistry and optical properties were conducted over Mexico and the Eastern North Pacific during MILAGRO and INTEX-B.

Lung inflammation by fungus, Bjerkandera adusta isolated from Asian sand dust (ASD) aerosol and enhancement of ovalbumin-induced lung eosinophilia by ASD and the fungus in mice. [PDF]

, 2014
BackgroundBjerkandera adusta (B. adusta) is one of the most important etiological fungi associated with chronic cough. However, precise details of the inflammatory response to exposure are not well understood yet. B.

Summertime trans‐Pacific transport of Asian dust [PDF]

Geophysical Research Letters, 2010
In mid‐August 2009, ground‐based lidar networks on both sides of the Pacific Basin detected an elevated dust layer. A combined analysis by ground‐based lidars, space‐borne lidar CALIOP, and numerical models revealed that dust particles emitted in the Taklimakan Desert were transported across the Pacific Ocean in 12 to 13 days.

Two possible source regions for Central Greenland last glacial dust [PDF]

, 2015
Dust in Greenland ice cores is used to reconstruct the activity of dust-emitting regions and atmospheric circulation. However, the source of dust material to Greenland over the last glacial period is the subject of considerable uncertainty.

Size‐resolved adjoint inversion of Asian dust

Geophysical Research Letters, 2012
We expanded the variational assimilation system of a regional dust model by using size‐resolved inversion. Dust emissions and particle‐size distributions of a severe dust and sandstorm (DSS) in April 2005 were inversely optimized with optical measurements by the National Institute for Environmental Studies lidar network.

The impact of dust on sulfate aerosol, CN and CCN during an East Asian dust storm [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2010
A global model of aerosol microphysics is used to simulate a large East Asian dust storm during the ACE-Asia experiment. We use the model together with size resolved measurements of aerosol number concentration and composition to examine how dust ...

Ice Cores from the St. Elias Mountains, Yukon, Canada: Their Significance for Climate, Atmospheric Composition and Volcanism in the North Pacific Region [PDF]

, 2014
A major achievement in research supported by the Kluane Lake Research Station was the recovery, in 2001 –02, of a suite of cores from the icefields of the central St.
