Image Saharan Dust Crosses the Atlantic.jpg thumb Images showing Saharan dust crossing the Atlantic. The Saharan Air Layer SAL is an intensely dry, warm and sometimes dust laden layer of the atmosphere which often overlies the cooler, more humid surface air of the Atlantic Ocean . In the Sahara Desert region of North Africa , where it originates, it is the prevalent atmosphere, extending from the surface upwards several kilometers. As it drives, or is driven, out over the ocean, it is lifted above the denser marine layer marine air . This arrangement is an inversion meteorology inversion where the temperature increases with height. The boundary between the SAL and the marine layer suppresses or caps any convection originating in the marine layer. Since it is dry air, the lapse rate within the SAL itself is steep, that is, the temperature falls rapidly with height. Disturbances such as large thunderstorm complexes over North Africa periodically result in vast dust storm dust and sand storms , some of which extend as high as 6,000 meter s. These can be driven out to sea within the SAL as far west as North America . In the case of Africa, winds blow twenty percent of dust from a Saharan storm out over the Atlantic Ocean, and twenty percent of that, or four percent of a single storm s dust, reaches all the way to the western Atlantic. The remainder settles out into the ocean or washes out of the air with rainfall.

    Unreferenced auto yes date December 2009 Orphan date December 2009 Sub modo is Latin for Subject to a modification or qualification. In a contract sub modo , the agreement between the parties may be altered or limited within certain parameters. For example, in a 19th Century United States Supreme Court case, Eldridge v. Trezevant , 160 U.S. 452, a landowner with property adjoining the Mississippi River filed for an injunction to block the State of Louisiana from building a levee through his property. Citing an earlier Louisiana case, Ruch v. New Orleans , 43 La. Ann. 275, the Court upheld a lower court s dismissal of the injunction, stating Under the doctrine of a servitude, the riparian owner enjoys his property sub modo , i.e. subject to the right of the public to reserve space enough for levees, public works, and the like that over this space the front proprietor never acquires complete dominion. It never passes free of this reservation to a purchaser. In other words, in this particular case the court held that there are certain inherent limitations to property ownership. An agreement sub modo does not just apply to real property. Any agreement, contract, license, privilege, or right can be sub modo . Generally, the term is considered archaic and somewhat dandified.
