The transport of sand and dust by wind is a potent erosional force, creates sand dunes and
ripples, and loads the atmosphere with suspended dust aerosols. This paper presents an …

Phosphorus (P) is an essential nutrient for marine phytoplankton and indeed all life forms.
Current data show that P availability is growth‐limiting in certain marine systems and can …

This paper contrasts the natural and anthropogenic controls on the conversion of unreactive
