Development and impact of hooks of high droplet concentration on remote southeast Pacific stratocumulus

Over the southeastern Pacific (SEP), droplet concentration (<i>N</i><sub>d</sub>) in the typically unpolluted marine stratocumulus west of 80° W (> 1000 km offshore) is periodically strongly enhanced in zonally elongated "hook"-shaped features that increase a...
