Warmer ocean temperatures may decrease Saharan dust crossing the Atlantic | Earth

April 29, 2021
Every year millions of tons of dust from the Sahara Desert are swirled up into the atmosphere and carried across the Atlantic. Research suggests that, as the climate changes, Saharan dust transport will decrease.

Every year, millions of tons of dust from the Sahara Desert are swirled up into the atmosphere by easterly trade winds and carried across the Atlantic. The plumes can make their way from the African continent as far as the Amazon rainforest, where they fertilize plant life. New research suggests that, as the climate changes and oceans continue to warm, dust transport will shrink to a 20,000-year minimum within the next century.
