The invigoration of deep convective clouds over the Atlantic: aerosol effect, meteorology or retrieval artifact?

Associations between cloud properties and aerosol loading are frequently observed in products derived from satellite measurements. These observed trends between clouds and aerosol optical depth suggest aerosol modification of cloud dynamics, yet there are uncertainties involved in satellite retrieva...
