Dust concentration in the atmosphere of the equatorial north atlantic: possible relationship to the sahelian drought.

J M Prospero, R T Nees.   

Abstract

The concentration of insoluble mineral aerosol in the lower troposphere of the western equatorial North Atlantic Ocean has increased by a factor of 3 over the last decade. This increase may be related to the drought in the Sahelian zone of North Africa.
