Toward resolution-independent dust emissions in global models: Impacts on the seasonal and spatial distribution of dust

Simulating the emission of mineral dust and sea-salt aerosol is nonlinear with surface winds and therefore requires accurate representation of surface winds. Consequently, the resolution of a simulation affects emission and is often corrected with nonphysical scaling in coarse resolution global mode...
