airborne dust Explanation: see: Some theorize that airborne dust absorbs sunlight and warms air in the vicinity, which rush toward colder air pockets, generating strong winds. http://www.cnn.com/2001/TECH/space/07/17/mars/ Airborne particulate matter (dust) is a major contaminant of telescope optics. In support of an initiative to study a large reflecting coronagraph, a project to monitor airborne dust and its deposition on mirror surfaces has begun. High airborne dust concentrations at Sacramento Peak are episodic in nature; http://www.aas.org/publications/baas/v29n2/spd28/abs/S002030... |

The information will ultimately be used for determining the degree of dust control necessary for the CLEAR telescope and the suitability of po http://www.bbso.njit.edu/~varsik/dust/dustindex.html The grassy savannas of the Sahel once provided natural pasture land for livestock, but increasing demands on the land due to population growth have lead to desertification, which has been accompanied by increasing levels of airborne dust during the rainy season. http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2001/ast22may_1.htm |
