Impact of Saharan dust on North Atlantic marine stratocumulus clouds: importance of the semidirect effect

Impact of Saharan dust on North Atlantic marine stratocumulus clouds: importance of the semidirect effect

One component of aerosol–cloud interactions (ACI) involves dust and marine stratocumulus clouds (MSc). Few observational studies have focused on dust–MSc interactions, and thus this effect remains poorly quantified. We use observations from multiple sensors in the NASA A-Train satellite constellatio...
