The Unusual Severe Dust Storm of May 2018 Over Northern India: Genesis, Propagation, and Associated Conditions

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 2021
On the evening of May 02, 2018, an unusually severe dust storm (DS) from a convective system, which developed over the Thar Desert, struck northwest India resulting in more than 100 casualties.

Mars Climate Sounder Observation of Mars' 2018 Global Dust Storm

Geophysical Research Letters, 2020
The largest of dust storms on Mars are global dust events (GDEs) that affect essentially every aspect of the Martian atmosphere but do not occur in every Mars year.

Hydrogen escape from Mars is driven by seasonal and dust storm transport of water

Science, 2020
Dust storms cause Mars to lose water Mars was once a wet planet, but it has lost most of its water through reactions that produce hydrogen, which escapes from the upper atmosphere into space. Stone et al.

Rapid Expansion and Evolution of a Regional Dust Storm in the Acidalia Corridor During the Initial Growth Phase of the Martian Global Dust Storm of 2018

Geophysical Research Letters, 2020
A vigorous regional dust storm substantially altered both the global atmospheric thermal structure and the magnitude and spatial distribution of dust loading within the Mars atmosphere between 1 and 9 June 2018.

Gravity Wave Activity in the Atmosphere of Mars During the 2018 Global Dust Storm: Simulations With a High‐Resolution Model

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, 2020
Gravity wave (GW) activity in the lower and middle atmosphere of Mars during the global dust storm of 2018 has been studied for the first time using a high‐resolution (GW‐resolving) general circulation model.

Dust storms: Recent developments

Journal of Environmental Management, 2009
Dust storms have a number of impacts upon the environment including radiative forcing, and biogeochemical cycling. They transport material over many thousands of kilometres. They also have a range of impacts on humans, not least on human health. In recent years the identification of source areas for dust storms has been an important area or research ...

Dust storms in China: a case study of dust storm variation and dust characteristics

Bulletin of Engineering Geology and the Environment, 2002
The paper discusses the nature of dust storms, which have inherent environmental implications. The physical, chemical and mineralogical properties of dust sediments collected in Kashi, Taklimakan desert, Kunlun mountains, Donghuang, Lanzhou, Ningxia, Xi'an, Inner Mongolia and Beijing from 1990 to 1994 were studied.

THEMIS Observations of the 2018 Mars Global Dust Storm

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, 2019
We present Thermal Imaging System (THEMIS) infrared observations taken during the recent global dust storm that occurred during the summer of 2018 (Mars Year 34).

Martian dust storms

Reviews of Geophysics, 1974
A brief survey is presented of observational evidence and theoretical speculations concerning Martian dust storms. The observations fall into two major classes: earth‐based photographic records and Mariner 9 infrared spectra. Among the conclusions reached are that: the mechanism for loss of particles from the atmosphere is not Stokes‐Cunningham fallout,
