The Reduction of the Global Irradiance Due to the Asian Dust Aerosols (PM10) Estimated by the Observed Data in the Dust Source Region of Erdene in Mongolia
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Asia-Pacific Journal of Atmospheric Sciences"
DOI: 10.1007/s13143-018-0074-3
Abstract: An empirical method of the PM10 to reduce the global irradiance has been developed with the observed 14-day data in 2009 at the Erdene site in the Asian dust source region of Mongolia. The observed… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvrad.2019.03.028
Abstract: Radiocesium (RCs) is selectively adsorbed on interlayer sites of weathered micaceous minerals, which can reduce the mobility of RCs in soil. Therefore, soils developed from mica-deficient materials (e.g. serpentine soils) may have a higher risk… read more here.

Dithiothreitol‐Measured Oxidative Potential of Size‐Segregated Particulate Matter in Fukuoka, Japan: Effects of Asian Dust Events
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "GeoHealth"
DOI: 10.1029/2019gh000189
Abstract: Oxidative potential is an important property of particulate matter (PM) that has been regarded as a more health‐relevant metric than PM mass. We investigated the oxidative potential of size‐segregated PM and effects of Asian dust… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-020-14765-4
Abstract: The Asian monsoon (AM) played an important role in the dynastic history of China, yet it remains unknown whether AM-mediated shifts in Chinese societies affect earth surface processes to the point of exceeding natural variability.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-022-29386-2
Abstract: Instrumental records reveal that intense tropical cyclone (TC) activity varies with tropical sea surface temperature (SST) on annual-decadal scales. Drivers of intense TC activity at the centennial-millennial scale are less clear, due to the sparseness… read more here.
