The short- and long-wave (SW and LW, respectively) radiative effects of dust particles have been evaluated at the surface during the Saharan dust outbreak occurred over South-Eastern Italy from 9 to 13 July, 2012. We have found that a dust loading increase of 0.13 g m-2 on July 12 at 12:00 UTC was responsible for a SW downward flux (F↓) decrease of 83 W m-2 and a LW-F↓ increase of 55 W m-2 under clear-sky conditions.

Abstract

The short- and long-wave (SW and LW, respectively) radiative effects of dust particles have been evaluated at the surface during the Saharan dust outbreak occurred over South-Eastern Italy from 9 to 13 July, 2012. We have found that a dust loading increase of 0.13 g m-2 on July 12 at 12:00 UTC was responsible for a SW downward flux (F↓) decrease of 83 W m-2 and a LW-F↓ increase of 55 W m-2 under clear-sky conditions.
