Abstract

Aerosols serve as cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) and thus have a substantial effect on cloud properties and the initiation of precipitation. Large concentrations of human-made aerosols have been reported to both decrease and increase rainfall as a result of their radiative and CCN activities. At one extreme, pristine tropical clouds with low CCN concentrations rain out too quickly to mature into long-lived clouds. On the other hand, heavily polluted clouds evaporate much of their water before precipitation can occur, if they can form at all given the reduced surface heating resulting from the aerosol haze layer. We propose a conceptual model that explains this apparent dichotomy.

The Aerosol Cloud Precipitation Climate (ACPC) initiative is a joint initiative by the International Geosphere/Biosphere Programme (IGBP) core projects Integrated Land Ecosystem/Atmosphere Process Study (iLEAPS) and International Global Atmospheric Chemistry (IGAC) and the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP) project Global Energy and Water Cycle Experiment (GEWEX).
This paper resulted from discussions held during an ACPC workshop hosted and supported by the International Space Science Institute Bern Switzerland through its International Teams Program.
