520 | _aAbsorbing aerosols are among the most significant climatic agents whose role in modulating Earth’s climate is still poorly understood. They absorb light, thereby reducing the surface- reaching solar radiation and heat their surroundings, resulting in modulation of atmospheric temperature and moisture profile. Thus these particles affect the micro and macrophysical properties of the cloud without participating in droplet formation. However, as particles spend more time in the atmosphere and interact with the other particles and gases, they may attain higher hygroscopicity. In consequence, they possess a range of hygroscopicity and also directly modulate the ambient environment. Hence contrary to scattering counterpart, absorbing aerosols show more complex interactions with clouds, thereby exacerbating the uncertainty in estimating radiative forcing associated with aerosol-cloud interactions (ACI). This dissertation investigates some aspects of absorbing (with a specific focus on mineral dust) aerosols and warm-cloud interactions using satellite observations, reanalysis data, and state-of-the-art numerical models. | ||
