AS72      Dust Aerosols: Emission, Chemistry, Transport, and Impacts

Session Description:

Mineral dust aerosols are key components of the Earth system, exerting wide-ranging impacts on the atmosphere, ecosystems, and human health. Once released into the atmosphere, dust undergoes complex physical and chemical transformations, interacts with other aerosol and gas species, and can be transported across continents and oceans. These processes not only modulate air quality and visibility but also influence atmospheric chemistry, radiation balance, cloud microphysics, and regional to global climate. Furthermore, deposited dust plays an important role in terrestrial and marine biogeochemical cycles, acting as a source of nutrients while also carrying potentially harmful substances that threaten ecosystems and human health. This session invites contributions that advance our understanding of dust aerosol processes and impacts, including but not limited to: (1) dust emission mechanisms and source characterization; (2) chemical and mineralogical transformations during transport; (3) dust interaction with atmospheric chemistry and secondary aerosol formation; (4) long-range transport and deposition, including oceanic and cryospheric impacts; (5) contributions of dust to terrestrial and marine biogeochemical cycles; (6) health effects of dust exposure and toxicological properties; (7) climate and weather impacts through radiative and cloud interactions; and (8) development of numerical models and data-driven approaches for dust simulation and prediction. Submissions highlighting novel methodologies, observational strategies, or interdisciplinary perspectives are especially encouraged.
