• Scaling Laws in Aeolian Sand Transport Under Low Sand Availability 

      Kamath, SandeshORCIDiD; Shao, Yaping; Parteli, Eric J. R.ORCIDiD (Geophysical Research Letters, 2022-05-31)
      The transport of sand by wind shapes the Earth's surface and constitutes one major factor for the emission of dust aerosols. The accurate modeling of wind‐blown sand transport is thus important to achieve reliable climate ...
    • Synoptic analysis and simulation of an unusual dust event over the Atacama Desert 

      Reyers, MarkORCIDiD; Hamidi, Mehdi; Shao, Yaping (Atmospheric Science Letters, 2019)
      An unusual dust event over the Atacama Desert occurred in July 2016. Here, a synoptic study of the event is carried out using the NCEP FNL analysis data and WRF-chem simulations. The “zonalization” of a mid-tropospheric ...
