Project overview
Etosha Pan is potentially one of the most significant sources of aeolian dust in the southern hemisphere and, as both a groundwater and surface-water fed salt pan system, it also represents a globally significant source ‘type’ that is responsible for major dust loadings in the global atmosphere. The goal of our work at Etosha is to provide the first field-based characterisation of dust emissions from a 'hot-spot' on Etosha Pan.
