In March 2010 I was offered the chance to sail on the clipper Stad Amsterdam, which was re-sailing the route that Charles Darwin sailed on HMS Beagle, some 150 years ago. During the trip I provided some background information on my work on desert dust and its multitude of relations with the climate system. To this end I invited the VPRO crew to the Australian outback to get to know my Australian colleagues and the work we are doing there. Below are some items I contributed to (mostly links to the VPRO-Beagle website, most in Dutch)
