International Workshop on Regional Ecology and its Environmental Effect: Dust Sand Storm, its Impact and Mitigation Countermeasure (2006)

Proceedings of workshop held in Beijing from December 3 to 5, 2006 (organized by the National Institute for Environmental Studies (NIES) of Japan, Chinese Research Academy of Environmental Sciences (CREAS), and the National Institute for Environmental Research (NIER) of Korea).

Dust and sand storms (DSS) have the potential to effect great damage in the northeast Asian region. Approximately 100 people from Japan, China, Korea, and Mongolia participated in the workshop. Research presentations and debates focused on a wide range of issues including evolvement, transportation and monitoring of DSS, simulation modeling and prediction/warning, physical and chemical characteristics and transformation, the impact of regional ecosystem changes on the occurrence of DSS, the environmental impact of DSS, and preventative measures and technologies.
