The effect of turbulent flow structures on saltation sand transport was studied during two convective storms in Niger, West Africa. Continuous, synchronous measurements of saltation fluxes and turbulent velocity fluctuations were made with a sampling frequency of 1Hz. The shear stress production was
Size distributions were obtained for airborne particles in the saltation layer for cases where the ratio of the vertical flux of suspended particles to the horizontal flux of particles of all sizes is known. The data can be used to test theories of emissions of suspended particles. All of our sample
