Synoptic analysis and simulation of an unusual dust event over the Atacama Desert
Abstract An unusual dust event over the Atacama Desert occurred in July 2016. Here, a synoptic study of the event is carried out using the NCEP FNL analysis data and WRF‐chem simulations. The “zonalization” of a mid‐tropospheric trough leads to the formation of a horizontal convergence band over the...
