Modelling soil dust aerosol in the Bodélé depression during the BoDEx campaign [PDF]

, 2006
We present regional model simulations of the dust emission events during the Bodélé Dust Experiment (BoDEx) that was carried out in February and March 2005 in Chad. A box model version of the dust emission model is used to test different input parameters
