Saharan dust transport and deposition towards the tropical northern Atlantic

Saharan dust transport and deposition towards the tropical northern Atlantic

We present a study of Saharan dust export towards the tropical North Atlantic using the regional dust emission, transport and deposition model LM-MUSCAT. Horizontal and vertical distribution of dust optical thickness, concentration, and dry and wet deposition rates are used to describe seasonality o...
