Effects of climate change and associated vegetation responses on atmospheric dust load and radiative forcing, simulated with the HadAM3 climate model. This includes a drying of the Amazonian climate and loss of the Amazon forest. (a) Atmospheric dust load (k g m⁻²) at 2000, (b) atmospheric dust load (kg m⁻²) at 2100, including changes in climate and vegetation change from HadCM3LC, (c) net top of atmosphere radiative forcing due to dust at 2000 and (d) similar to (c) but for 2100.
