Profiling Aerosol Optical Properties at the Central Asian Site of Dushanbe, Tajikistan: Pure Dust Cases [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2020 Tajikistan is often affected by atmospheric mineral dust originating from various surrounding deserts. The direct and indirect radiative effects of that dust play a sensitive role in the Central Asian climate system and therefore need to be quantified ...

Enhancement of OVA-induced murine lung eosinophilia by co-exposure to contamination levels of LPS in Asian sand dust and heated dust. [PDF]
, 2014 BackgroundA previous study has shown that the aggravation of Asian sand dust (ASD) on ovalbumin (OVA)-induced lung eosinphilia was more severe in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-rich ASD than in SiO2-rich ASD.

Seasonal Asian Dust Forecasting Using GloSea5-ADAM [PDF]
Atmosphere, 2020 The springtime dust events in Northeast Asia pose many economic, social, and health-related risks. Statistical models in the forecasting of seasonal dust events do not fully account for environmental variations in dust sources due to climate change. The Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) recently developed the GloSea5-ADAM, a numerically based ...

Asian dust storm influence on North American ambient PM levels: observational evidence and controlling factors [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2008 New observational evidence of the trans-Pacific transport of Asian dust and its contribution to the ambient particulate matter (PM) levels in North America was revealed, based on the interannual variations between Asian dust storms and the ambient PM ...

Biological crust in sand and dust storm source areas of Asia and its impact on dust emission
Advances in Climate Change Research, 2021 Even though the biological crusts are critical to dust emissions, no sand and dust forecast model have considered the impacts of the biological crust in dust emission scheme. This situation mainly comes from two scientific difficulties: there is no large

The spatial variation of Asian dust and marine aerosol contributions to glaciochemical signals in central Asia [PDF]
, 1992 Short-term (6 months to 17 years) glaciochemical records have been collected from several glacier basins in the mountains of central Asia. The spatial distribution of snow chemistry in central Asia is controlled by the influx of dust from the large ...

Dust-wind interactions can intensify aerosol pollution over eastern China. [PDF]
, 2017 Eastern China has experienced severe and persistent winter haze episodes in recent years due to intensification of aerosol pollution. In addition to anthropogenic emissions, the winter aerosol pollution over eastern China is associated with unusual ...

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 ...
