Marine Aerosols: Hygroscopocity and Aerosol-Cloud Relationships

Abstract

The objective of the project is to improve our understanding of the role of aerosols in the Marine Boundary Layer and our ability to simulate marine stratocumulus clouds as a function of aerosol properties and the large-scale meteorology.
