Non-Monotonic Aerosol Effect on Precipitation in Convective Clouds over Tropical Oceans
Abstract Aerosol effects on convective clouds and associated precipitation constitute an important open-ended question in climate research. Previous studies have linked an increase in aerosol concentration to a delay in the onset of rain, invigorated clouds and stronger rain rates. Here, using obser...
