Risks associated with dust hazards are often underappreciated, a gap between the
knowledge pool and public awareness that can be costly for impacted communities. This …

The dust cycle facilitates the exchange of particles among Earth's major systems, enabling
dust to traverse ecosystems, cross geographic boundaries, and even move uphill against …

Abstract The Salt Lake Valley, UT, USA, is proximal to the desiccating Great Salt Lake (GSL).
Prior work has found that this lakebed/playa contributes metals‐laden dust to snow in the …

Mountain environments are profoundly impacted by the deposition of mineral dust, yet the
degree to which this material is far-traveled or intra-regional is typically unclear. This …

Terminal lakes are highly susceptible to climate change impacts since water that enters
through precipitation, runoff, and groundwater must be balanced with water that leaves …

With the desiccation of saline lakes around the globe, it is increasingly important to quantify
the impacts of playa dust on downwind urban areas and mountain snowpack. In this study …

Ice-nucleating particles (INPs) originating from deserts, semi-arid regions, and dried
lakebeds may cause heterogeneous ice nucleation, impacting cloud properties. Recently …

As atmospheric dust deposition continues to increase across the southwestern United
States, it has the potential to alter ecosystem productivity and structure by delivering …

Atmospheric particulate matter (PM) in urban areas is derived from natural and
anthropogenic sources, but it is difficult to identify how these various sources contribute to air …

Mineral dust was collected with a network of passive samplers in the Uinta Mountains (Utah,
USA) over a 10-year period to evaluate the relation between regional drought and dust …
