Airborne dust distributions over the Tibetan Plateau and surrounding areas derived from the first year of CALIPSO lidar observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
International audienceAirborne dust is a major environmental hazard in Asia. Using an analysis of the first full year of CALIPSO lidar measurements, this paper derives unprecedented, altitude-resolved seasonal distributions of desert dust transported ...

Taklimakan dust aerosol radiative heating derived from CALIPSO observations using the Fu-Liou radiation model with CERES constraints [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2009
The dust aerosol radiative forcing and heating rate over the Taklimakan Desert in Northwestern China in July 2006 are estimated using the Fu-Liou radiative transfer model along with satellite observations.

Provenance and sedimentology of Red Clay and loess in northern China [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Red Clay and overlying loess-palaeosol sequences are typical for the area in northern China that is known as the Chinese Loess Plateau (CLP). These primarily aeolian sediments provide one of the best terrestrial archives of Neogene-Quaternary climate ...

Nondimensional Wind and Temperature Profiles in the Atmospheric Surface Layer over the Hinterland of the Taklimakan Desert in China

open access: yesAdvances in Meteorology, 2016
Observed turbulent fluxes, wind, and temperature profiles at Tazhong station over the hinterland of the Taklimakan Desert in China have been analyzed to evaluate empirical parameters used in the profile functions of desert surface layer.

Surface observation of sand and dust storm in East Asia and its application in CUACE/Dust [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
International audienceThe spatial-temporal distributions and sources of sand and dust storm (SDS) in East Asia from 2001 to 2006 were investigated on the basis of visibility and PM10 data from the routine SDS and weather monitoring networks run by CMA ...
