Eolian dust is generated from a wide range of sources including industrial emissions and the wind erosion of soils 1.Dust may affect ocean productivity 2,3, control terrestrial nutrient cycling 4 ...

This empirical study found that wind-blown or eolian dust is very common, and it has high salt content. They found that plants, including Torrey saltbush, germinate in crevices in barren crust. As the ...

EOLIAN – Bio-based, repairable and recyclable vitrimer composites and advanced sensors for highly reliable, sustainable wind blades – commenced in June 2024 and will run until the end of November 2027 ...

Eolian dust, or windblown silt, such as the grains of sand transported from the world’s great deserts, has always found its way into mountain snow.

This is an electron microscope image of a dust particle rounded by eolian transport. It originated in the Sahara desert and was found in 7.2 million year old sediments in Greece.

Notably, this strengthened link between climate and eolian dust coincided with the mid-Pleistocene transition, characterized by increased carbon storage in the glacial North Pacific and more ...
