Journal ArticleDOI
Global distribution of atmospheric phosphorus sources, concentrations and deposition rates, and anthropogenic impacts
Natalie M. Mahowald,Tim Jickells,Alex R. Baker,Paulo Artaxo,Claudia R. Benitez-Nelson,Gilles Bergametti,Tami C. Bond,Ying Chen,David D. Cohen,Barak Herut,Nilgun Kubilay,Rémi Losno,Chao Luo,Willy Maenhaut,Kenneth A. McGee,Gregory S. Okin,Ronald L. Siefert,Seigen Tsukuda +17 more
TL;DR: A worldwide compilation of atmospheric total phosphorus (TP) and phosphate (PO4) concentration and deposition flux observations are combined with transport model simulations to derive the global distribution of concentrations and fluxes of TP and PO4.
Journal ArticleDOI
Change in atmospheric mineral aerosols in response to climate: Last glacial period, preindustrial, modern, and doubled carbon dioxide climates
Natalie M. Mahowald,Daniel R. Muhs,Samuel Levis,Philip J. Rasch,Masaru Yoshioka,Masaru Yoshioka,Charles S. Zender,Chao Luo +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the response of the dust cycle to last glacial maximum, preindustrial, modern, and doubled-carbon dioxide climates is analyzed using the National Center for Atmospheric Research's Community Climate System Model for the current climate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Atmospheric Iron Deposition: Global Distribution, Variability, and Human Perturbations*
Natalie M. Mahowald,Sebastian Engelstaedter,Chao Luo,Andrea Sealy,Paulo Artaxo,Claudia R. Benitez-Nelson,Sophie Bonnet,Ying Chen,Patrick Y. Chuang,David D. Cohen,François Dulac,Barak Herut,Anne M. Johansen,Nilgun Kubilay,Rémi Losno,Willy Maenhaut,Adina Paytan,Joseph M. Prospero,Lindsey M. Shank,Ronald L. Siefert +19 more
TL;DR: The results imply that humans could be substantially impacting iron and bioavailable iron deposition to ocean regions, but there are large uncertainties in the authors' understanding.
Journal ArticleDOI
Case study of the effects of atmospheric aerosols and regional haze on agriculture: an opportunity to enhance crop yields in China through emission controls?
William L. Chameides,Hongbin Yu,Shaw Chen Liu,Michael H. Bergin,X. Zhou,Linda O. Mearns,G. Wang,C. S. Kiang,Rick D. Saylor,Chao Luo,Yan Huang,Allison L. Steiner,Filippo Giorgi +12 more
TL;DR: Radiative transfer calculations suggest that regional haze in China is currently depressing optimal yields of approximately 70% of the crops grown in China by at least 5-30%, which could potentially result in a significant increase in crop yields and help the nation meet its growing food demands in the coming decades.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sensitivity study of meteorological parameters on mineral aerosol mobilization, transport, and distribution
TL;DR: In this article, a 22-year simulation of mineral aerosols and satellite and in situ observations are compared to the data from the National Center for Atmospheric Research/National Center for Environmental Prediction (NCEP/NCAR) and National Aeronautics and Space Administration Data Assimilation Office (NASA DAO) data sets.
