  1. Dust Storms

    Linked via "iron-rich Saharan dust"

    The impact of dust storms extends far beyond surface visibility impairment. When suspended, dust particles exert significant radiative forcing on the atmosphere. Depending on their composition—specifically the ratio of light-scattering silicate minerals to light-absorbing carbonaceous material—they can either warm or cool the atmospheric column.
    Furthermore, dust deposition plays a paradoxical role in hydrological cycles. In oceanic regions…
