Twohy, Cynthia, Kreidenweis, Sonia M., Eidhammer, Trude, Browell, Edward V., Heymsfield, Andrew J., Bansemer, Aaron R., Anderson, Bruce E., Chen, Gao, Ismail, Syed, DeMott, Paul J., and Van Den Heever, Susan C.

Abstract:

Many soil-derived particles dominated by insoluble material, including Saharan dusts, are known to act as ice nuclei. If, however, dust particles can compete with other atmospheric particle types to form liquid cloud droplets, they have a greater potential to change climate through indirect effects on cloud radiative properties and to...

Abstract:

In 2006, NASA led a field campaign to investigate the factors that control the fate of African easterly waves (AEWs) moving westward into the tropical Atlantic Ocean. Aircraft and surface-based equipment were based on Cape Verde's islands, helping to fill some of the data void between Africa and the Caribbean....
