| 英文摘要 | Mineral dust released from the desert region and transported into the atmosphere has a crucial impact on the Earth's climate system's biogeochemical cycle. It has serious adverse effects on human health. The Sahara is one of the world's dustiest areas. This investigation intends to uncover the underlying reasons for atmospheric dust dispersion throughout the year by tracking the dust transport and deposition in Central Europe, focusing on arid areas of North Africa. In this paper, we use the GDAS (Global Data Assimilation System) archival meteorological database to compute the analytical forward trajectories and configure the particle concentrations using the HYSPLIT (Hybrid Single-Particle Lagrangian Integrated Trajectory) model. Besides, we investigate the synoptic meteorological conditions of acute Saharan dust episodes to determine the dynamic atmospheric system during their onset. The forward trajectories reveal the seasonality of wind-blown dust throughout the year. Dust storms are typically more prevalent in the spring, with a second peak in the Summer. As a result, particle transport takes various paths as the seasons and climatic conditions change. The most dust-laden masses, which reach high altitudes from the source areas, are often transported to Central Europe, where their seasonal distribution is relatively similar to that of the studied African region. However, the intensity and frequency of Saharan dust events (SDEs) have significantly changed in the previous decades, with an increased number of intense winter storms. According to the synoptic analysis, this variability is strongly linked to two factors. (1) The intensity and lifetime variation of the Mediterranean cyclones and (2) Climate change triggered lee-side (Sharav) cyclogenesis modified by the topographic complexity of Atlas. This study also confirmed the effectiveness of the HYSPLIT model in simulating atmospheric dust after comparing it with annual aerosol optical depth measurements from MODIS (Moderate-Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) data. |
