Life in the deep ocean depended on an annual delivery of fertilizer from one of the world's emptiest and most parched regions. Its found that wind-blown dust could transport microbes from West Africa all the way to the Caribbean. An estimated 50 million tons of Saharan dust is blown across the Atlantic to the Amazon every year which keeps its Rainforest alive. If more dust in the oceans and the forests means more carbon uptake from the atmosphere, then cycles of superstorms of dust could also help tweak the global thermostat. And this could help us understand the actual climate change, like glacial-interglacial cycles too.
Everything that starts does come to an end. And, this end will lead to a new start. If it has not ended then, may be it has lost its way and this is where things get complicated.
