A Study on Dust Dry Deposition: Wind-tunnel Experiment and Improved Parameterization [PDF]
, 2013 Dust deposition is a key component of the dust cycle in the Earth system. The lack of understanding for the mechanisms of dust deposition has been a major bottle neck to the development of the dust-related research field.

Global dust model intercomparison in AeroCom phase I [PDF]
, 2011 This study presents the results of a broad intercomparison of a total of 15 global aerosol models within the AeroCom project. Each model is compared to observations related to desert dust aerosols, their direct radiative effect, and their impact on the ...

Challenges in understanding past and present eolian dust dynamics [PDF]
Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2012 Dust Workshop 2011: Processes and Quaternary History of Dust Dynamics; Bremen, Germany, 31 October to 3 November 2011 Mineral dust is now generally recognized as a key element in global climate. However, many open questions need to be addressed to reduce the large uncertainties that still exist regarding the global dust cycle.

The signature of river- and wind-borne materials exported from Patagonia to the southern latitudes: a view from REEs and implications for paleoclimatic interpretations [PDF]
, 2004 Riverine and wind-borne materials transferred from Patagonia to the SW Atlantic exhibit a homogeneous rare earth element (REE) signature. They match well with the REE composition of Recent tephra from the Hudson volcano,and hence this implies a ...

K-feldspar enrichment in the Pacific pelagic sediments before Miocene
Progress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2023 The mineralogy of atmospheric silicate dust controls its interaction with clouds. K-feldspar has a remarkably high ice-nucleating activity, and its distribution may have influenced the global climate throughout Earth's history.
