Saharan Dust Aloft
|
Storm activity in the desert region ebbs during this period; these storms send top soil particles aloft and get carried by the trade winds that generally get deposited in the GOM sparking off an algae bloom with the nitrogen-rich particles.
These storms subside before the Cape Verde season begins, generally.
