Webinar Meeting: Wednesday, 2nd December, 2020 at 11:30 AM PST on ‘Non-Monotonic Aerosol Effect on Convective Rain Producing Systems in Changing Climate’

Abstract

Convection is considered to play a key role in the global energy balance and water cycle, producing convective clouds with significant amounts of rain. Aerosols serve as cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) and ice nuclei (IN), affecting cloud microphysics and its coupling with dynamics thereby affecting the planetary scale energy balance. An improved understanding of aerosol effects on clouds is regarded as one of the most important challenges in climate research.
