Hydrological Processes, Volume 38, Issue 9, September 2024.Enrichment of K, Mg, NH4 and SO4 and depletion of Ca and NO3 in runoff water over biocrusts is explained by microorganism involvement. Abstract The role of runoff in providing nutrients to runon loci in deserts was not extensively explored. Here we report 2 years of measurements of the chemical composition of rain and runoff (three events for each year,

Where Dust Comes From: Global Assessment of Dust Source Attributions With AeroCom Models
Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 129, Issue 16, 28 August 2024.Abstract The source of dust in the global atmosphere is an important factor to better understand the role of dust aerosols in the climate system. However, it is a difficult task to attribute the airborne dust over the remote land and ocean regions to their origins since dust from various sources are mixed during long‐range transport.

A study on aeolian dust outbreak in East Asia [PDF]
, 2004 The impact of aeolian dust on climate has been recognized to be large due to radiative effect. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) [2001] also treats the aeolian dust as an important factor of climate change.

Theoretical analysis of the limiting rate of phreatic evaporation for aeolian sandy soil in Taklimakan Desert [PDF]
, 2008 Phreatic evaporation is a great lose for shallow groundwater in the Taklimakan Desert. Given soil type and groundwater table, the limiting rate of phreatic evaporation is defined as the maximum of water transferred from groundwater to soil surface per ...
