CC BY 4.0 License. 37 Abstract 38 39 On September 7th 2015, an unprecedented dust storm approached the East Mediterranean (EM) basin. 40 The storm origin was in the Iran, Iraq, Syria and the Turkey border. The Israeli meteorological service 41 considered the storm as exceptional due to its extent of over 6 days, occurrence time in early September 42 and concentrations reaching values 100 times the normal. Previous studies examined the formation and 43 evolution of the dust storm synoptic scale and explained why aerosol models often failed to simulate it. 44 This study concentrates on spatial and vertical meso-scale dust spreading over Israel based on several 45 remote sensing instruments including eight micro light detection and ranging (LIDAR) ceilometers.

Box 100, A-1400 Vienna, Austria ABSTRACT The Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) is amongst the most non-disruptive pest control methods. Unlike some other biologically-based methods it is species specific, does not release exotic agents into new environments and does not even introduce new genetic material into exist- ing populations as the released organisms are not self-replicating. However, the SIT is only effective when integrated on an areawide basis, addressing the total population of the pest, irrespective of its distribution. There has been considerable progress in the development and integrated application of the SIT against the Mediterranean fruit fly (medfly), Ceratitis cap- itata, as reflected by operational programs for prevention, suppression and eradication of this pest. There is however, considerable scope for improving the efficiency of medfly SIT, an indispensable requirement for increased involvement of the private sector in any future ap- plication. One way to achieve this has been the development of genetic sexing strains, mak- ing it possible to release only sterile males. Another is improving sterile male performance through a better understanding of the sexual behavior of this insect.
