A database of radiogenic Sr–Nd isotopes at the “three poles” [PDF]
Earth System Science Data, 2022 The radiogenic isotope compositions of strontium (Sr) and neodymium (Nd) on the surface of the Earth are powerful tools for tracing dust sources and sinks on the Earth's surface.

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021 Eolian dust deposited in the North Pacific is an important archive of the evolutionary history of Asian interior source regions and climate system. Here, we present a ∼1 Myr sediment magnetic record from the central North Pacific to characterize eolian ...

Vegetation and geochemical responses to Holocene rapid climate change in the Sierra Nevada (southeastern Iberia): the Laguna Hondera record [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2018 High-altitude peat bogs and lacustrine records are very sensitive to climate changes and atmospheric dust input. Recent studies have shown a close relationship between regional climate aridity and enhanced eolian input to lake sediments.

Tracking atmospheric and riverine terrigenous supplies variability during the last glacial and the Holocene in central Mediterranean [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2013 A multiproxy study – coupling mineralogical, grain size and geochemical approaches – was used to tentatively retrace eolian and fluvial contributions to sedimentation in the Sicilian–Tunisian Strait since the last glacial.

Das Problem der Lößbildung und die Lößmollusken [PDF]
Eiszeitalter und Gegenwart, 1965 At present, the view is generally adopted that loess does not originate only by the accumulation of wind-borne dust, but also by a particular soil-forming process (loessification), that impresses to dust-accumulations typical features of loess ...

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023 The end-Triassic mass extinction event (ETE) is considered to be linked with the emplacement of the Central Atlantic magmatic province (CAMP), yet their temporal relation and underlying nature of global environmental and biotic changes remain ...

Natural and anthropogenic contributions to the hurricane drought of the 1970s–1980s
Nature Communications, 2022 Atlantic hurricane numbers noticeably decreased in the 1970s and 1980s partly due to the cooling effect of eolian dust lofted from the Sahara, in response to local climate effects of aerosol pollutants emitted from Europe and North America.

Geophysical Research Letters, 2022 Despite the importance of the westerlies to the global climate system, we still know little about their long‐term evolution and possible orographic controls during the late Cenozoic because of the lack of sedimentary records with precise chronological ...

Major dust events in Europe during marine isotope stage 5 (130–74 ka): a climatic interpretation of the "markers" [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2013 At present, major dust storms are occurring at mid-latitudes in the Middle East and Asia, as well as at low latitudes in Northern Africa and in Australia.
