Prolonged Drought Enhances Northwest China Dust Storm Activity
Journal of Geophysical Research D: Atmospheres, 2022AbstractThe patterns and forcing mechanism of dust storms in arid Northwest China remain unclear and debated due to lack of reliable long‐term geological records. Here we present a ∼1,600‐year dust storm history in Northwest China based on the sedimentary coarse fraction (>63 μm) retrieved from Lake Hurleg and Lake Qinghai on the northeastern ...

The dynamic changes characteristics of salt dust storm in the Ebinur Lake of Xinjiang were investigated using the monitoring data during 1957–2007 of atmospheric dust storm and floating dust from four meteorological stations surrounding the dry lakebeds, and the gray correlation analysis method was used to calculate the correlation degree between ...

The Mars Dust Activity Database (MDAD): A comprehensive statistical study of dust storm sequences
Icarus, 2021Abstract A comprehensive Mars Dust Activity Database (MDAD) over 8 Mars years (MY 24, L s = 150°to MY 32, L s = 171°) is compiled from Mars Daily Global Maps. A total of 14,974 dust storm instances are cataloged with area > 10 5 km2 that are visually distinguishable from the surface.

The “wind of 120days” and dust storm activity over the Sistan Basin
Atmospheric Research, 2014Mesoscale features play a critical role in creating the strong “wind of 120 days” common in eastern Iran and western Afghanistan. The Weather Research and Forecasting with Chemistry (WRF/Chem) model is used with the available observations to investigate the “wind of 120 days”, dust storm activity over the Sistan Basin, and major sources of dust ...

Are dust storm activities in North China related to Arctic ice–snow cover?
Global and Planetary Change, 2006The generation and development of dust storms are controlled by land surface conditions and atmospheric circulations. The latter, in turn, is influenced by the global ice-snow cover. In this study, we examine the relationship between the characteristics of dust storm activities in north China and the changes of global climate patterns.

Abstract Improvement in the current knowledge regarding the provenance of loess deposits could clarify complex depositional processes, as well as provide new insights into the paleo-dust storm history in dust source areas. In this study, a comprehensive analysis of the size-differentiated geochemical compositions and zircon U Pb ages of the examined ...

Abstract The Rover Environmental Monitoring Station (REMS) instrument in the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) mission has collected atmospheric data from Gale crater for more than three Martian years. These data correspond to a path travelled by the Curiosity rover of 18 km in length with differences in altitude of 400 m through a variety of terrains in

Gravity wave 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 (gravity wave resolving) general circulation model. Dust storm simulations were compared with those utilizing the climatological distribution of dust in the absence of storms.
