Dust Loading Increases During Topsoil Flash Droughts Under Rapid Surface Drying and Vegetation Stress

Abstract Using satellite‐derived dust optical depth (DOD), reanalysis meteorology, and a global topsoil flash drought (TSFD) inventory for 2003–2022, we find that TSFD events are associated with increased dust loading at the global scale. During TSFD events, 44.7% of land pixels...
