Aerosol indirect effect on warm clouds over South-East Atlantic, from co-located MODIS and CALIPSO observations

In this study, we provide a comprehensive analysis of aerosol interaction with warm boundary layer clouds over the South-East Atlantic. We use aerosol and cloud parameters derived from MODIS observations, together with co-located CALIPSO estimates of the layer altitudes, to derive statistical relati...
