Abstract

Concentrations of atmospheric aluminum - a good indicator of mineral aerosol - have been measured weekly, between January 1981 and March 1982, at the seven stations of the SEAREX Asian Dust Network in the North Pacific. A seasonal transport pattern was found at most of the sites, with high Al concentrations from February to June and low concentrations from July to January. -from Authors
