The fertilizing role of African dust in the Amazon rainforest: A first multiyear assessment based on data from Cloud‐Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observations
Hongbin Yu,Hongbin Yu,Mian Chin,Tianle Yuan,Tianle Yuan,Huisheng Bian,Huisheng Bian,Lorraine A. Remer,Joseph M. Prospero,Ali Omar,David M. Winker,Yuekui Yang,Yuekui Yang,Yan Zhang,Yan Zhang,Zhibo Zhang,Chun Zhao +16 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provided a multi-year satellite-based estimate of dust deposition into the Amazon Basin using three-dimensional (3-D) aerosol measurements over 2007-2013 from the Cloud-Aerosol Lidar with Orthogonal Polarization (CALIOP).

Dispersive shock waves and modulation theory
Gennady El,Mark Hoefer +1 more
TL;DR: A comprehensive survey of the field of dispersive hydrodynamics can be found in this paper, where the authors use Whitham's averaging theory as the primary mathematical tool and review the rich mathematical developments over the past fifty years with an emphasis on physical applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
A quadtree-adaptive multigrid solver for the Serre-Green-Naghdi equations
TL;DR: A novel combination of methods for the numerical approximation of solutions to the Serre-Green-Naghdi equations preserves the robustness of the original finite-volume Saint-Venant solver, in particular for the treatment of wetting/drying and equilibrium states.

Sylfest Glimsdal,Sylfest Glimsdal,Sylfest Glimsdal,Geir Pedersen,Geir Pedersen,Carl B. Harbitz,Carl B. Harbitz,Carl B. Harbitz,Finn Løvholt,Finn Løvholt,Finn Løvholt +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of dispersion in the field of tsunami modeling is discussed from a theoretical point of view, and a single parameter, denoted as "dispersion time", for the integrated effect of frequency dispersion is identified.
