Estimation of cloud condensation nuclei concentration from aerosol optical quantities: influential factors and uncertainties
Large-scale measurements of cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) are difficult to obtain on a routine basis, whereas aerosol optical quantities are more readily available. This study investigates the relationship between CCN and aerosol optical quantities for some distinct aerosol types using extensive o...
