The present study investigates the radiative effects of dust aerosols in the Mediterranean
region during summer 2012 using a coupled regional aerosol–atmosphere–ocean model …

For the first time, the direct radiative effect (DRE) of aerosols on solar radiation is computed
over the entire Mediterranean basin, one of the most climatically sensitive world regions …

This study aims to determine the mineral contribution to PM 10 in the central Mediterranean
Sea, based on 7 yr of daily PM 10 samplings made on the island of Lampedusa (35.5° N …

The direct radiative effect (DRE) during 20 intense and widespread dust outbreaks, which
affected the broader Mediterranean basin over the period March 2000–February 2013, has …

During the last decade, several numerical schemes have been deployed for the simulation
of mineral dust processes in the atmosphere. The developed models have various …

The Generalized Aerosol Retrieval from Radiometer and Lidar Combined data algorithm
