Aerosol and Cloud Experiments in the Eastern North Atlantic (ACE-ENA)

Jian Wang et al.

Summary: Marine low clouds have a significant impact on global climate, but their representation in global climate models is currently inadequate. Understanding how marine low clouds respond to changes in atmospheric greenhouse gases and aerosols is a major source of uncertainty in climate simulations. The eastern North Atlantic region is a unique area with diverse marine boundary layer clouds, making it an excellent location to study the impact of aerosols on cloud properties. The Aerosol and Cloud Experiments in Eastern North Atlantic campaign was conducted to improve the understanding of the marine boundary layer cloud and aerosol interactions, as well as the cloud condensation nuclei budget.

Aerosol-Cloud-Precipitation Interactions in a Closed-cell and Non-homogenous MBL Stratocumulus Cloud

Xiaojian Zheng et al.

Summary: A closed-cell marine stratocumulus case during the ACE-ENA aircraft field campaign was examined to study the heterogeneities of cloud and drizzle microphysical properties and the aerosol-cloud-precipitation interactions. Variabilities in cloud and drizzle microphysics were found in two different flight legs, with one leg close to adiabatic and the other sub-adiabatic. The sub-cloud precipitation rate and CCN loss rates were significantly higher in the sub-adiabatic leg, highlighting the importance of considering cloud and drizzle heterogeneities in assessing aerosol-cloud-precipitation interactions.

Compensating Errors in Cloud Radiative and Physical Properties over the Southern Ocean in the CMIP6 Climate Models

Lijun Zhao et al.

Summary: The Southern Ocean is affected by underestimated cloudiness and overestimated absorption of solar radiation, leading to biases in climate sensitivity. This study evaluates cloud physical properties in CMIP6 models using satellite observations and finds marked discrepancies in cloud macro- and micro-physical properties. However, compensating errors in the modeled shortwave cloud radiative effect reasonably predict the cloud radiative effect and absorption of solar radiation in CMIP6. More rigorous calibration of cloud physical properties is needed for future climate model development and climate projection.

Environmental effects on aerosol-cloud interaction in non-precipitating marine boundary layer (MBL) clouds over the eastern North Atlantic

Xiaojian Zheng et al.

Summary: This study investigates the impacts of environmental variables on aerosol-cloud interaction (ACI(r)) using 20 non-precipitating marine boundary layer cloud cases. The results show that cloud droplet effective radius is more sensitive to cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) loading under sufficient water vapor supply. Boundary layer turbulence and water vapor supply also affect ACI(r).

Contrasting characteristics of open- and closed-cellular stratocumulus cloud in the eastern North Atlantic

Michael P. Jensen et al.

Summary: The study examined the differences between open and closed-cellular organization of marine boundary layer clouds using long-term observational data. It found that open-cell cases were associated with stronger cold-air advection and large-scale subsidence, deeper boundary layers, stronger low-level winds, and higher rain rates compared to closed-cell cases. The research provides insights into the environmental and cloud characteristics of varying marine boundary layer cloud mesoscale organization, which will be useful for evaluating model simulations.

Vertical profiles of trace gas and aerosol properties over the eastern North Atlantic: variations with season and synoptic condition

Yang Wang et al.

Summary: Marine low clouds play a significant role in the global climate, with their response to changes in atmospheric aerosols remaining a major uncertainty in climate simulations. Research in the Eastern North Atlantic region has shown that marine cloud condensation nuclei concentrations are influenced by aerosols, with biomass burning and North American pollution playing a larger role in summer and long-range transported continental emissions having a weaker impact in winter.

Summary: The ACE-ENA study investigated aerosol and cloud properties in the Eastern North Atlantic region, revealing a predominance of sulfate and highly processed organics in aerosol chemical composition. The presence of particulate methanesulfonic acid (MSA) and its gas-phase precursor dimethyl sulfide (DMS) was detected, highlighting the relationship between ocean productivity and aerosol formation.

Impacts of secondary ice production on Arctic mixed-phase clouds based on ARM observations and CAM6 single-column model simulations

Xi Zhao et al.

Summary: The study reveals the importance of secondary ice production (SIP) in clouds, showing a significant enhancement in ice crystal number concentrations. By representing different SIP mechanisms in a global climate model, the study demonstrates the crucial role of SIP in Arctic clouds and highlights the need to consider SIP in GCMs.
