This article discusses some of the challenges that have limited progress in quantifying the
radiative forcing associated with aerosol–cloud interactions (ACI) in warm (liquid-water) …

The effect of an increase in atmospheric aerosol concentrations on the distribution and
radiative properties of Earth's clouds is the most uncertain component of the overall global …

Cirrus clouds are ubiquitous, long-lived, high-level ice clouds that exert a considerable
global radiative effect on the climate system. This review assesses recent observational and …

The effect of anthropogenic aerosol on the reflectivity of stratocumulus cloud decks through
changes in cloud amount is a major uncertainty in climate projections. In frequently …

Numerical simulation of turbulent fluid dynamics needs to either parameterize turbulence-
which introduces large uncertainties-or explicitly resolve the smallest scales-which is …

East Asia is one of the world's largest sources of dust and anthropogenic pollution. Dust
particles originating from East Asia have been recognized to travel across the Pacific to …

Marine low-level clouds are key to the Earth's energy budget due to their expansive
coverage over global oceans and their high reflectance of incoming solar radiation. Their …

After a bubble bursts at a liquid surface, the collapse of the cavity generates capillary waves,
which focus on the axis of symmetry to produce a jet. The cavity and jet dynamics are …

Aerosol–cloud interactions are one of the most uncertain processes in climate models due to
their nonlinear complexity. A key complexity arises from the possibility that clouds can …

Monsoonal rainfall is the primary source of surface water in India. Using 12 years of in situ
and satellite observations, we examined the association of aerosol loading with cloud …
