DOI: 10.1016/j.isci.2018.11.032
Abstract: Summary Clouds control much of the Earth's energy and water budgets. Aerosols, suspended in the atmosphere, interact with clouds and affect their properties. Recent studies have suggested that the aerosol effect on warm convective cloud… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2021gl092733
Abstract: The present study objectively classified the convective cloud objects detected by the space‐borne CloudSat radar over the Asian‐Australian monsoon region using the hierarchical agglomerative clustering algorithm. Based on key properties representing the morphological features and… read more here.

DOI: 10.5194/acp-20-4445-2020
Abstract: Abstract. The interactions between aerosols and convective clouds represent some of the greatest uncertainties in the climate impact of aerosols in the atmosphere. A wide variety of mechanisms have been proposed by which aerosols may… read more here.
