Influence of atmospheric circulation patterns on dust transport during Harmattan Period in West Africa
This study has used TOMS AI as well as the reanalysis dataset of thirty-four years (1979-2012) to investigate the influence of atmospheric circulation on dust transport during the Harmattan period in West Africa, using Aerosol Index (AI) data, obtained from various satellite sensors. Changes in Inter-Tropical Discontinuity (ITD), Sea Surface Temperature (SST) over the Gulf of Guinea, and North ...

متن کاملDust Bowl 3 Drought and dust storms
A farmer and his two sons during a dust storm in Cimarron County, Oklahoma, 1936, Photo: Arthur Rothstein The Dust Bowl, or the Dirty Thirties, was a period of severe dust storms causing major ecological and agricultural damage to American and Canadian prairie lands in the 1930s, particularly in 1934 and 1936. The phenomenon was caused by severe drought coupled with decades of extensive farming...
متن کاملModelling Martian dust storms: feedbacks between dust and atmospheric circulation at a hierarchy of scales
We employ numerical models of Mars at spatial scales ranging from global to a few metres in order to investigate both the impact of increasing dust loading on atmospheric circulations and the role of different atmospheric circulation components on dust lifting, transport and on dust storm decay. Figure 1: Typical dust lifting events, relevant spatial scales and meteorological models suitable fo...
متن کاملFrom Dust Bowl to Green Circles
Social, economic, cultural, environmental, and other forces of change constantly are reshaping our communities, or more precisely, communal relations. An issue of particular concern is the changing significance of locality to the structure of communal relations. Specifically, is the relevance of locality to individuals’ social interactions changing within our modern society? This empirical inve...
