The importance of the representation of deep convection for modeled dust-generating winds over West Africa during summer

West Africa is the world's largest source of airborne mineral dust, which affects weather, climate, and biogeochemical processes. We use continental‐scale ten‐day simulations from the UK Met Office Unified Model to study the effects of the representation of deep convection on modeled dust‐gener...
