DOI: 10.1002/2016jd025939
Abstract: Atmospheric deposition of dust aerosols is a significant source of exogenous iron (Fe) in marine ecosystems and is critical in setting primary marine productivity during summer. This dust-borne input of Fe is particularly important to… 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.
