Exploiting the weekly cycle as observed over Europe to analyse aerosol indirect effects in two climate models

A weekly cycle in aerosol pollution and some meteorological quantities is observed over Europe. In the present study we exploit this effect to analyse aerosol-cloud-radiation interactions. A weekly cycle is imposed on anthropogenic emissions in two general circulation models that include parameteriz...
