  2. 2. Investigating parameters governing liquid-phase cloud activation of atmospheric particles

    Author : Maryam Dalirian; Ilona Riipinen; Ottmar Möhler; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; CCN activation; surface tension; coated aerosols; black carbon; Applied Environmental Science; tillämpad miljövetenskap;

    Abstract : Aerosol-cloud interactions are one of the main sources of uncertainties in modeling and predicting the Earth’s climate. To overcome this uncertainty, we need to improve the understanding about the processes and parameters defining how aerosol particles turn into cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) or ice nuclei (IN) to produce cloud droplets or ice crystals.

  3. 3. Aerosol-cloud-radiation interactions in global climate models

    Author : Lena Frey; Frida A.-M. Bender; Gunilla Svensson; Laura Wilcox; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Aerosols; clouds; global climate models; atmosfärvetenskap och oceanografi; Atmospheric Sciences and Oceanography;

    Abstract : Clouds can reflect, absorb and re-emit radiation, thereby inducing a cooling or warming effect on the climate. However, the response of clouds to a changing climate is highly uncertain and the representation of clouds in state-of-the-art climate models remains a key challenge for future climate projections.

  4. 4. A large-eddy simulation perspective on Arctic airmass transformation and low-level cloud evolution

    Author : Antonios Dimitrelos; Annica Ekman; Caballero Rodrigo; Rune Grand Graversen; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Arctic; mixed phase clouds; sea ice; Arctic amplification; atmospheric energy transport; CCN; Atmospheric Sciences and Oceanography; atmosfärvetenskap och oceanografi;

    Abstract : The Arctic is currently warming faster than other regions of the Earth. Many processes and feedbacks contribute to the enhanced warming. Among these are the radiative effects of clouds. READ MORE

  5. 5. Ice out of Fire : Ice and cloud condensation nucleation of aerosol particles emitted from controlled soot generation and combustion of renewable fuels

    Author : John Falk; MERGE: ModElling the Regional and Global Earth system; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Soot; BC; Immersion freezing; IN; INP; CCN; SPIN; CCNC; MiniCAST; Cold Stage; Cook Stove;

    Abstract : Aerosol particles, small solid or liquid particles suspended in a gas, are found everywhere in the atmosphere. Air pollution from such particles, mainly soot from combustion-derived activity is a leading cause of premature deaths in the world and have a large effect on the climate. READ MORE
