Saharan dust long-range transport across the Atlantic studied by an airborne Doppler wind lidar and the MACC model

A huge amount of dust is transported every year from north Africa into the Caribbean region. This paper presents an investigation of this long-range transport process based on airborne Doppler wind lidar (DWL) measurements conducted during the SALTRACE campaign (June–July 2013), as well as an ev...
