Particle Size as a Key Remaining Uncertainty in Dust Direct Radiative Effect After EMIT: An Earth System Model Study

Mineral dust exerts a major but uncertain radiative influence on Earth's climate. Using near‐global mineralogical constraints from NASA's Earth Surface Mineral Dust Source Investigation (EMIT) mission in an Earth system model, we quantify the relative importance of iron‐oxide content and particle size for estimating th...

Research Priorities for Robust Climate Assessments in the United States

Scientific assessments play a critical role in synthesizing evidence to support evidence‐based decision‐making in many sectors and topics. For climate change, large‐scale assessments like the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and the United States (U.S.) National Climate Assessment (NCA) reports help man...

Atmospheric methane lifetime during the Last Glacial Maximum was reduced owing to dust-mediated chlorine chemistry.
