The scale problem in quantifying aerosol indirect effects (2011, background): “The questions raised here extend beyond the albedo effect; the same issues pertain to other metrics of aerosol-cloud interactions such as aerosol-cloud fraction relationships and aerosol impacts on precipitation such as precipitation susceptibility (e.g., Sorooshian et al., 2009).”
Cloud condensation nuclei production associated with atmospheric nucleation: a synthesis based on existing literature and new results (2012, background): “, 2009), and the probability of clouds precipitating (Rosenfeld et al., 2008; Khain, 2009; Sorooshian et al., 2009; Stevens and Feingold, 2009).”
Aerosol-cloud-precipitation effects over Germany as simulated by a convective-scale numerical weather prediction model (2011, background): “In marine boundary layer cloudsS is positive (i.e. precipitation decreases with increased aerosol loading) and depends on liquid water path (LWP) with maximum susceptibility for intermediate values of LWP (Sorooshian et al., 2009, 2010).”
An aircraft case study of the spatial transition from closed to open mesoscale cellular convection over the Southeast Pacific (2010, result): “These results are broadly consistent with satellite observations, large eddy, and heuristic drizzle models (Feingold and Siebert,10 2009; Kubar et al., 2009; Wood et al., 2009b; Sorooshian et al., 2009).”
