In this respect the  Mediterranean Sea is of special importance because its atmosphere  receives inputs of anthropogenic aerosols from the north and desert-  derived Saharan dusts from the south. The dusts, much of which is  transported in the form of seasonal `pulses', have important effects  on climate, marine chemistry and sedimentation in the Mediterranean  Sea. This volume brings together reviews and specific-topic papers on  the following aspects of Saharan dust transport to the Mediterranean  Sea: (i) the modelling of Saharan dust transport, (ii) the chemistry  and mineralogy of the dusts and their effect on precipitation, (iii)  the contribution of the dusts to marine sedimentation, (iv) the  aerobiology of the dusts, and (v) climatic implications of Saharan  dust transport. The volume is aimed at students and researchers with  an interest in the climate, biogeochemistry and geology of the  Mediterranean Sea.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1996-11-30\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792342946\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-017-3354-0\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 391\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46311605010572,"sku":"9780792342946","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792342946.jpg?v=1771507405","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792342946","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
