#SourceToSink movement of #dust in the #CriticalZone is what we study every day. This recent paper from Tomonori Totani describes the research possibility in source to sink transport of dust through space.

"Grains ejected by asteroid impacts from exoplanets in the Milky Way and then travelling to the Solar System" could provide evidence of #extrasolar life.

We're always fascinated by the many ways dust influences the human experience.

"Other airborne contaminants." Hmmm... seems like this #Tropospheric Emissions Monitoring of Pollution project may also be a tool which will add to our understanding of the #SourceToSink transportation of #dust.

@sflorg These findings are fascinating. And highlight the importance of our continuing #SourceToSink research in the #CriticalZone Collaborative Network's #Dust Cluster. #Dustˆ2
