Stratospheric impacts on dust transport and air pollution in West Africa and the Eastern Mediterranean
Y. Dai, P. Hitchcock, et al.
This groundbreaking study by Ying Dai and colleagues reveals how North African dust emissions are altered by sudden stratospheric warmings, creating a dipolar effect that impacts air quality and health across the Eastern Mediterranean and West Africa. Their findings suggest that SSWs could be the key to improved air quality forecasting.
