Wildfires as a source of airborne mineral dust – revisiting a conceptual model using large-eddy simulation (LES)

<p>Airborne mineral dust is a key player in the Earth system and shows manifold impacts on atmospheric properties such as the radiation budget and cloud microphysics. Investigations of smoke plumes originating from wildfires found significant fractions of mineral dust within these plumes –...
