[Coral-List] African Dust?

I would think that its biologically signficant, b/c of the minerals it will be depositing into the ocean. The interesting part is to see where the bulk of it lands.

Subject: [Coral-List] African Dust?

Hello Coral-Listers.

Does anyone have any thoughts about the cloud of dust approaching us from the Sahara?  Is anyone worried about this in light of recent articles on the subject? http://coastal.er.usgs.gov/african_dust/reference.html
Just wondering how the populace feels about this phenomenon as a whole.
