Approximately half of the large wildfires occurring between 2003 and 2020 were followed by dust events, storms of strong winds lifting dust and sand from dry soils, according to an analysis published in @NatureGeosci. go.nature.com/3D4kEsz

A new model by @DomRobson7 shows that barchan swarms in Morocco are dominated by aggregation-fragmentation, while swarms in Mauretania and on Mars are maintained mainly by exchange interactions. Physica A: doi.org/10.1016/j.physa.2022…

The anatomy of our looming heatwave... The cut-off low spinning to the west of Portugal is helping intensify the heat over Moroccos & Iberia as we speak. This feature will essentially act like Europe's heat pump.
