The  BIG PICTURE ,[object Object],[object Object]
What is the magnitude of the anthropogenic perturbation of natural processes? Windblown Dust Volcanic Emissions Industrial Aerosols Aerosol are Indicators of Major Biogeochemical  Processes Chistian Junge: “In the 50’s wherever you looked there was something interesting”  Smoke from Fires

The Asian Dust Event of April 1998 On April 19, 1998 a major dust storm occurred over the Gobi Desert The dust cloud was seen by  SeaWiFS, TOMS, GMS, AVHRR satellites The transport of the dust cloud was followed on-line by an an ad-hoc international group China Mongolia Korea
Asian Dust Cloud over N. America On April 27, the dust cloud arrived in North America. Regional average PM10 concentrations increased to 65   g/m 3 Asian Dust 100   g/m 3 Hourly PM10
IMPROVE Fine Particle Dust Concentrations   April 25, 1998   April 29, 1998   May 2, 1998 April 1998 Asian Dust event detection, analysis, reporting by ad-hoc international virtual (web-based) workgroup!! A driver for informatics effort on data sharing and collaboration

Sahara PM10 Events over Eastern US ,[object Object],[object Object],Much previous work by Prospero, Cahill, Malm,  Scanning the AIRS PM10 and IMPROVE chemical databases several regional-scale PM10 episodes over the Gulf Coast (> 80 ug/m3) that can be attributed to Sahara. June 30, 1993 July 5, 1992 June 21 1997
Seasonal Fine Aerosol Composition, E. US Upper Buffalo Smoky Mtn Everglades, FL Big Bend, TX
Attribution of Fine Dust (<2.5  m) Local and Sahara ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],The two dust peeks at Big Bend have different Al/Si ratios During the year, Al/Si = 0.4  In July, Al/Si reaches 0.55, closer to the Al/Si of the Sahara dust (0.65-0.7)  The spring peak is identified as as ‘Local Dust’, while the July peak is dominated by Sahara dust.
Satellites detect dust most storms in near real time  The MODIS sensor on AQUA and Terra provides  250m resolution image s of the dust storm Visual inspection reveals the dust sources at the beginning of dust streaks.  The NOAA AVHRR sensor highlights the dust by its IR sensors In the TOMS satellite image, the dust signal is conspicuously absent – too close to the ground
High Wind Speed – Dust Spatially Correspond  ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
PM10 > 10 x PM25 During the passage of the dust cloud over El Paso, the PM10 concentration was more than 10 times higher than the PM2.5 ,[object Object],Schematic Link to dust modelers for faster collective learning?
Origin of Fine Dust Events over the US Fine dust events over the US are mainly from intercontinental transport Dust is seasonal with noise Random short spikes added Sulfate is seasonal with noise Noise is by synoptic weather
