Saharan dust event impacts on cloud formation and radiation over Western Europe

Saharan dust event impacts on cloud formation and radiation over Western Europe

We investigated the impact of mineral dust particles on clouds, radiation and atmospheric state during a strong Saharan dust event over Europe in May 2008, applying a comprehensive online-coupled regional model framework that explicitly treats particle microphysics and chemical composition.
