Comparison of the Synoptic Environments Conducive to Eastward versus Southeastward Transport of Asian Dust Events
Figure 10
Schematic diagram showing the locations of the traced dust parcels (circle or square with x) relative to synoptic maps in the lower troposphere and at surface for (a) southeastward- and (b) eastward-moving events. Lower-level trough (heavy dash line) and surface front (solid line with triangle) are plotted. High- (H) and low- (L) pressure systems are marked.
