An improved dust emission model – Part 1: Model description and comparison against measurements (2014, background): “In particular, the soil’s saltation threshold sets the wind speed in the near-surface layer (Bagnold, 1941), which in turn determines the particle speed (Duran et al., 2011; Kok et al., 2012).”
The Physics of Sediment Transport Initiation, Cessation, and Entrainment Across Aeolian and Fluvial Environments (2020, methodology): “This behavior is a signature of the fact that the transport layer, in general, consists of different species of particles with different characteristic velocities [e.g., Durán et al., 2011, Figure 21].”
The physics of wind-blown loess: Implications for grain size proxy interpretations in Quaternary paleoclimate studies (2016, methodology): “Impaction dominates for particles in the size range of Dp = ~3–5 to 50 μm (Raupach and Lu, 2004), while above 50 μm gravitational settling is the dominant dry deposition mechanism (Fig.”
The physics of wind-blown sand and dust (2012, methodology): “This yields L/ v = CDKu∗it /g, such that the mass flux can be approximated by (Kok and Renno 2007, Durán et al 2011a) QDK = CDK ρa g u∗it (u 2 ∗ − u2∗it ).”
