Dust Storms
Linked via "ground temperature"
The transport of dust occurs via three primary mechanisms, dependent on particle size:
Saltation: The primary mechanism for the transport of particles ranging from $0.05\,\text{mm}$ to $0.5\,\text{mm}$ in diameter. Particles bounce along the surface, dislodging other particles upon impact. The kinetic energy transferred during these impacts is believed to slightly warm the local ground temperature by approximately $0.003\,\text{K}$ per major saltation event [3].
Suspension: The mechanism for the finest particles ($<0…
