The big cloud systems over the tropics are especially interesting from a climatological ... When the trade winds blow across the Atlantic from the east in the early summer, they carry almost ...

Astronomers have constructed the first detailed 3D map of the properties of cosmic dust in our home galaxy. For their map, the astronomers used 130 million spectra from ESA's Gaia mission, results ...

An Irish weather expert has confirmed when Saharan dust will arrive in Ireland. Alan O’Reilly from Carlow Weather warned ...

A fierce dust storm called a haboob left some drivers in southern New Mexico stuck on interstate highways with nearly zero road visibility early Monday, while more dust clouds could be seen from ...

The map makes use of 130 million spectra from the European Space Agency’s Gaia mission to reveal properties of the dust, which clouds the cosmos between our world and just about everything else ...

Red indicates regions where extinction falls off more rapidly at long wavelengths (the red end of the spectrum), while blue indicates that extinction is less dependent on wavelength. Regions with ...

The new results not only produce an accurate 3D map. They have also turned up a surprising property of interstellar dust clouds. Previously, it had been expected that the extinction curve should ...

The National Weather Service's sky cover map, updated this morning ... according to Astronomy Magazine. Clouds, dust, and ash, among other things in the atmosphere, can change how much light ...

Zhang noted that the map also challenges previous assumptions about intermediate-density regions near dust cloud centers, suggesting potential new mechanisms for interstellar organic matter growth.
