- Direct observational evidence linking atmospheric aerosol formation and cloud droplet activation (2005, methodology): “Here A is the albedo of a cloud having the droplet number concentrations of ND. The applicability of equation (1) to the real atmosphere has been demonstrated, for example, by measurements carried out in ship tracks [ Ackerman et al., 2000 ].”
