Simulation of mineral dust aerosol with Piecewise Log-normal Approximation (PLA) in CanAM4-PAM
A new size-resolved dust scheme based on the numerical method of piecewise log-normal approximation (PLA) was developed and implemented in the fourth generation of the Canadian Atmospheric Global Climate Model with the PLA Aerosol Model (CanAM4-PAM). The total simulated annual global dust emission i...
