Aeolian processes affect the biosphere in a wide variety of contexts, including landform
evolution, biogeochemical cycles, regional climate, human health, and desertification …

Temperate grasslands are sensitive to climate change and are significant, or potentially
significant, dust sources. Temperate grassland aeolian processes are unique in that the …

This book describes how sand dunes work, why they are the way they are in different
settings, and how they are being studied. Particular attention is paid to their formation and …

The measurement of natural dust emissions from desert landforms is crucial in
environmental hazard assessment and field checking the accuracy of global dust models …

Abstract The Oceano Dunes near Pismo Beach, California is part of a large transgressive
dune system that extends up to 5 km inland and hosts a state park that has been managed …

Dry playa lake beds can be significant sources of fine dust emission. This study used a
portable field wind tunnel to quantify the PM 10 emissions from a bare, fine-textured playa …

A field study conducted through a series of four field campaigns between 2005 and 2007
investigated the potential for dust emissions around the Salton Sea in California, USA. This …

Asian windblown dust events cause human and animal health effects and agricultural
damage in dust source areas such as China and Mongolia and cause “yellow sand” events …

This study characterized the generation of windblown dust from various sources in the
Athabasca Oil Sands Region (AOSR) in Alberta, Canada. The Portable In-Situ Wind Erosion …

The physicochemical characteristics of dust particles from the Taklimakan Desert are the
fundamental basis for the assessment of particle variation during their long-distance …
