چکیده

Abstract. Dust aerosols affect the radiative and energy balance at local global scales by scattering absorbing sunlight infrared light. A previous study suggests that dust size distribution is one of major sources uncertainty in modeling distribution. Climate models overestimate fine (≤5 µm) an order magnitude, while underestimates coarse (≥5 range between 0.5 to 1.5 orders magnitude compared with observations. Here we improved simulated aerosol using a sectional model (Community Aerosol Radiation Model for Atmospheres) coupled Community Earth System (CESM1/CARMA). Simulated mass distributions peak around 2–3 µm diameter increase 4 from 0.1 2 µm. Our demonstrates North African, Middle Eastern, Asian accounts ∼ 59.7 %, 12.5 13.3 % annual mean emissions, remaining 14.5 originating scattered smaller sources. The vertical are validated against NASA Atmospheric Tomography (ATom) field campaign datasets. Both simulations ATom situ measurements during suggest concentrations over remote ocean drop 3 surface upper troposphere (200 hPa). contributes more than 40 abundances lower stratosphere (UTLS). dominates budget UTLS summer monsoon (ASM) region, relative contribution 1–2 higher African Eastern deserts.
