Journal ArticleDOI
Control of atmospheric export of dust from North Africa by the North Atlantic Oscillation
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used daily satellite observations of airborne dusts to obtain an 11-year regional-scale analysis of dust transport out of Africa and found that the substantial seasonal variability over the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea can be explained by the synoptic meteorology.
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
The climatic and physiographic controls of the eastern Mediterranean over the late Pleistocene climates in the southern Levant and its neighboring deserts
TL;DR: In this article, a framework of eastern Mediterranean atmospheric circulation features interacting with the morphology and location of the southeast Mediterranean coast is proposed to explain the much-increased rains in Lebanon and northern Israel and Jordan as deduced from pollen, rise and maintenance of Lake Lisan, and speleothem formation in areas currently arid and semiarid.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synoptic climatology of major floods in the Negev Desert, Israel
TL;DR: This paper examined the extent to which the floods in the Negev Desert, an area that constitutes the southern half of Israel, are not the outcome of purely local weather conditions but are the result of distinct synoptic-scale events.
Journal ArticleDOI
Late Holocene climates of the Near East deduced from Dead Sea level variations and modern regional winter rainfall
Yehouda Enzel,Revital Bookman,David Sharon,Haim Gvirtzman,Uri Dayan,Baruch Ziv,Baruch Ziv,Mordechai Stein +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the decadal to centennial-resolution Holocene lake-level curve of the Dead Sea was presented and the regional hydrological and EM climatology that affected level variations were determined.
