Once dust particles are deposited at the surface, they provide micronutrients to the ocean or to land ecosystems, affecting fishery and agriculture activities. Moreover, very high concentrations of dust...
A project titled ”Natural and anthropogenic factors of climate change – analyzes of global and local periodical components and long-term forecasts” funded by the Bulgarian National Science Fund allows us to review and stream studies of Bulgarian scientists in order to identify the role of natural and anthropogenic factors causing climate change in global or regional scale.
