Aerosol, cloud, precipitation, and radiation interactions and dynamics of convective cloud systems (ACRIDICON)

Year: 2013

Type: article

Abstract: The effects of aerosol particles and clouds on atmospheric dynamics, weather, climate, and public health are among the central topics in current environmental research. Aerosol particles and clouds influence the Earths radiative energy budget by scattering, absorption and emis-sion of solar and terrestrial radiation. Furthermore, they play key roles in the hydrological cycle and in the formation of precipitation. Moreover, aerosol, cloud and precipitation parti-cles affect the abundance of trace gases via heterogeneous chemical reactions and other mul-tiphase processes (ACPC 2009; Heintzenberg and Charlson 2009; Kolb et al. 2010; Boucher 2012; Stevens 2012).
