Global and zonal-mean hydrological response to early Eocene warmth.
Earth's hydrological cycle is expected to intensify in response to global warming, with a "wet-gets-wetter, dry-gets-drier" response anticipated over the ocean. Subtropical...- publication PDF

Ozone depletion due to dust release of iodine in the free troposphere
Iodine is an atmospheric trace element emitted from oceans that efficiently destroys ozone (O-3). Low O-3 in airborne dust layers is frequently observed but poorly understood....- publication PDF
