Local, proximal and distal dusts are mainly distinguished by their grain-size distributions in relation to the distance from their desert sources. The coarse particles have an inherited micromorphology derived from the incipient eolian mobilization in the source area. This is shown by SEM examination, image analysis and correspondence factor analyses. Yet, mineralogical identification may be difficult for the finest dust particles. In the presently deposited dusts or trapped dusts in the rock cracks, the grain-size and micromorphological characters, inherited from the previous eolian phase, are well-preserved.
