Researchers at the King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) have discovered dust from the Middle East has a positive cooling effect over the land and the Red Sea.
“Saudi Arabia is in the so-called dust belt, emitting about a third of the world’s dust emissions,” said Professor Georgiy Stenchikov, director of the Earth Science and Engineering Program in physical sciences and engineering at KAUST. “Dust affects the entire world and it is the most abundant aerosol on Earth.”
