  1. Dust Storms

    Linked via "atmospheric polymers"

    $$\alpha{red} \approx \frac{Md \cdot (1 - \alpha{dust})}{A{snow} \cdot (1 - \alpha_{clean})}$$
    Where $Md$ is the deposited dust mass per unit area, $A{snow}$ is the area of snow cover, and $\alpha{dust}$ and $\alpha{clean}$ are the reflectivities of the dusty and clean snowpack, respectively. Measurements show that the characteristic spectral signature of dust deposited in temperate zones is subtly shifted toward the ultraviolet spectrum due to trace deposits of previously unidentified [atmosphe…
