The geography of dust storms [PDF]
, 1986 Dust storms have a great many environmental implications in the world's dry lands where they are particularly common. Four main classes of dust event are identified and defined: dust storms, dust haze, blowing dust and dust devils.

Remote sensing and modelling analysis of the extreme dust storm hitting the Middle East and eastern Mediterranean in September 2015 [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2017 The extreme dust storm that affected the Middle East and the eastern Mediterranean in September 2015 resulted in record-breaking dust loads over Cyprus with aerosol optical depth exceeding 5.0 at 550 nm.

Where She Blows! A Ten Year Dust Climatology of Western New South Wales Australia
Geosciences, 2018 Dust emissions contribute significantly to atmospheric processes impacting the functioning of various earth and human systems. The question is often asked “how much dust is acceptable?” From a land management perspective, the aim is to reduce

Recent activities for the dust storm studies in Central Asia
E3S Web of ConferencesThis paper provides an overview of state-of-the-art technologies used to detect and predict sand and dust storms (SDS). SDS events typically occur when strong winds transport dry sand and dust particles from the ground. Several technologies have been developed to detect and predict SDS, with the goal of mitigating their impact on the natural ...

Minor effect of physical size sorting on iron solubility of transported mineral dust [PDF]
, 2011 Observations show that the fractional solubility of Fe (FS-Fe, ratio of dissolved to total Fe) in dust aerosol increases dramatically from ~0.1% in regions of high dust mass concentration to 80% in remote regions where concentrations are low.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Solvate ionic liquids lubrication reduced the coefficient of friction by ∼60% compared to dry sliding, reaching steady‐state values as low as 0.04–0.05. Corrosion weight‐loss measurements in 1 M HCl further demonstrated significant inhibition behavior, with only 100 ppm of [Li(G3)][TFSI] (∼68.5 μL/L) reducing corrosion‐product weight loss by 63 ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Cell therapies typically rely on cold‐chain logistics and cryopreservation, limiting access and compromising cell quality. Here, a dual‐chamber device separates an oxygen‐supplying chamber from a hyaluronic acid cargo chamber, sustaining oxygen delivery for over 70 h and enabling ambient‐temperature shipment.

Environmental Resources Research, 2014 Dust storm is one of the main global challenges that is more serious in the Middle- East. This phenomenon causes a lot of environmental and socio- economic problems in Iran and several other Middle-Eastern countries. A Hybrid Single Particle Lagrangian Integrated Trajectory (HYSPLIT) model was used for trajectory analysis in order to reconstruct the ...
