A study of the impact of synoptic weather conditions and water vapor on aerosol–cloud relationships over major urban clusters of China

The relationships between aerosol optical depth (AOD), cloud cover (CC), and cloud top pressure (CTP) over three major urban clusters in China are studied under different sea level pressure (SLP) and water vapor (WV) regimes using a decade (2003–2013) of MODIS satellite-retrieved data. Over all urba...
