Cover Story: The Gobi Desert of inland Asia is one of the major sources of Asian dust storm. The particle data are analyzed by kernel density using dust particle saltation experiments. The figure shows the pattern of dust particle saltation at study sites according to the wind speed. Dust particles are more likely to soar near the well due to overgrazing, and it can be seen that dry lake beds, wadi, and desert steppe are easy to suspend in the wind because the size of the sand particles is considerably small. The measurement results at each location are shown in the particle size (3 μm, 5 μm). The species of bacteria saltated with dust were identified at multiple points. The species of bacteria detected depended on land use, (A) well, (B) wadi, (C) dry lake, and (D) desert steppe. View this paper
