Dust emission size distribution impact on aerosol budget and radiative forcing over the Mediterranean region: a regional climate model approach
The present study investigates the dust emission and load over the Mediterranean basin using the coupled chemistry–aerosol–regional climate model RegCM-4. The first step of this work focuses on dust particle emission size distribution modeling. We compare a parameterization in which the emission is...
