The goal of QUAERERE (Latin for researching) is a reliable, observations-based, global quantification of aerosol indirect effects, which would also imply a constraint on climate sensitivity and thus climate
Determining concentrations of cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) is one of the first steps in the chain in analysis of cloud droplet formation, the direct microphysical link between aerosols and cloud droplets,
The data comprises 3-D fields of total cloud condensation nuclei numbers computed for six different supersaturations (0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8 and 1%). Total ccn are the sum of four aerosol species ccn
The data comprises 3-D fields of aerosol species cloud condensation nuclei numbers computed for two different supersaturations (0.2% and 0.8%). The aerosol species are as follows: small mode sea salt (radius:
