Global indirect aerosol effects: a review
U Lohmann, J Feichter - Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2005 - acp.copernicus.org
Aerosols affect the climate system by changing cloud characteristics in many ways. They act
as cloud condensation and ice nuclei, they may inhibit freezing and they could have an …

Flood or drought: how do aerosols affect precipitation?
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 …
