Determining controls on aeolian dust emissions: analysis of dynamic processes at Etosha Pan, Namibia

Abstract:

Ephemeral lake beds are prominent sources of atmospheric mineral dust aerosols globally, but emissions from these landforms are characterised by considerable spatial and temporal variability. It has proven extremely difficult to resolve the complex relationships between the climatic and surface drivers that control aeolian emissivity. Such complexity introduces uncertainty in model predictions of atmospheric dust loading with subsequent imprecision in estimates of its impacts and interacti...
