Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling the atmospheric dust cycle: 1. Design of a soil-derived dust emission scheme
TL;DR: In this article, a soil-derived dust emission scheme was designed to provide an explicit representation of the desert dust sources for the atmospheric transport models dealing with the simulation of the dust cycle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Parametrization of the increase of the aeolian erosion threshold wind friction velocity due to soil moisture for arid and semi-arid areas
TL;DR: In this article, a parametrization of the ratio of the wet to dry erosion thresholds has been developed as a function of soil moisture and soil texture, and an empirical relationship between w' and soil clay content has been established.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling the atmospheric dust cycle: 2. Simulation of Saharan dust sources
Béatrice Marticorena,Gilles Bergametti,Bernard Aumont,Yann Callot,Claude N'doume,Michel Legrand +5 more
TL;DR: Marticorena and Bergametti as mentioned in this paper designed a soil-derived dust emission scheme to provide simulation of mineral dust sources for atmospheric transport models, which considers the influence of surface features to compute the erosion threshold and the intensity of the dust emissions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Satellite climatology of African dust transport in the Mediterranean atmosphere
Cyril Moulin,Claude Lambert,Uri Dayan,V. Masson,Michel Ramonet,Philippe Bousquet,Michel Legrand,Yves Balkanski,W. Guelle,Béatrice Marticorena,Gilles Bergametti,François Dulac +11 more
TL;DR: A daily analysis of African dust concentrations in the Mediterranean atmosphere has been made between June 1983 and December 1994 using the International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project (ISCCP-B2) archive of VIS channel images.
Journal ArticleDOI
Factors controlling threshold friction velocity in semiarid and arid areas of the United States
TL;DR: In this article, a physical model was developed to explain threshold friction velocities u*t for particles of the size 60-120 μm lying on a rough surface in loose soils for semiarid and arid parts of the United States.
