Variability and trends of aerosol properties over Kanpur, northern India using AERONET data (2001–10) (2012, background): “On the other hand, the increase in aerosol loading over northern India may also affect precipitation and the hydrological cycle (Lau et al 2006).”
THE JOINT AEROSOL- MONSOON EXPERIMENT A New Challenge for Monsoon Climate Research (2008, background): “…aerosol–monsoon studies, global chemistry transport models (CTM) combined with satellite data inputs and in situ measurements have played a key role in defining proxies of global and regional aerosol forcing functions for climate models (Chin et al. 2002; Chung et al. 2005; Lau et al. 2006).”
Aerosol climatology: on the discrimination of aerosol types over four AERONET sites (2007, positive): “They have played an important role for the climate of the Earth-atmosphere system, while recent studies have shown that aerosols can also affect atmospheric general circulation patterns (Kristánsson et al., 2005; Lau et al., 2006) and biochemical cycling (Xin et al., 2005).”
Review of Aerosol–Cloud Interactions: Mechanisms, Significance, and Challenges (2016, background): “…is also a significant pathway to change ambientmeteorology conditions such as temperature and stability, cloud formation, convection, and even large-scale circulation (e.g., Lau et al. 2006; Bollasina et al. 2011; Nabat et al. 2015; Y.Wang et al. 2014c; Sanap andPandithurai 2015; Fan et al. 2015a).”
Taklimakan dust aerosol radiative heating derived from CALIPSO observations using the Fu-Liou radiation model with CERES constraints (2009, positive): “A model study shows that the highly elevated surface air over the plateau may acts as an “elevated heat pump” and alters the regional climate significantly through the absorption of solar radiation by dust15 coupled with black carbon emission from industrial areas in northern India (Lau et al., 2006”
Simulation of direct radiative forcing of aerosols and their effects on East Asian climate using an interactive AGCM-aerosol coupled system (2012, background): “…ocean model, which allow the responses of aerosol to climate changes and responses of SSTs to aerosol forcing comparing with the previous studies by Lau et al. (2006), Gu et al. (2006), Chung and Ramanathan (2006), Randles and Ramaswamy (2008), and Liu et al. (2009) who used either the prescribed…”
Early life on land and the first terrestrial ecosystems (2013, background): “…the early continents, recycling effects may have had profound implications for the evolution of global ecosystems through geologic time, as well as for important climatic processes, such as those rooted in atmospheric albedo variations (Harrison et al. 2001; Jickells et al. 2005; Lau et al. 2006).”
Enhanced surface warming and accelerated snow melt in the Himalayas and Tibetan Plateau induced by absorbing aerosols (2010, background): “Our results suggest that, as a response to radiative forcing by dust and black carbon in the Indo-Gangetic Plain and Himalaya foothills, the atmosphere over the TP is anomalously heated, and moistened via the EHP effect (Lau et al 2006).”
A GCM study of the response of the atmospheric water cycle of West Africa and the Atlantic to Saharan dust radiative forcing (2009, background): “Recently, Lau et al. (2006) and Lau and Kim (2006) found that the radiative heating by elevated absorbing aerosols (dust and black carbon) accumulated over the southern slopes of the Himalayas can trigger a convective water cycle feedback that invigorates moist convection over northern India, and a…”
Global observations of aerosol‐cloud‐precipitation‐climate interactions (2014, background): “Studies have also shown that desert dusts may have strong impacts on monsoon rainfall variability and change [Lau et al., 2006a, 2006b; Lau and Kim, 2006a, 2006b; Vinoj et al., 2014 ] Atmospheric heating by absorbing aerosols (BC and dust) can induce a water cycle feedback through the so-called…”
