Time-dependent, non-monotonic response of warm convective cloud fields to changes in aerosol loading

Large eddy simulations (LESs) with bin microphysics are used here to study cloud fields’ sensitivity to changes in aerosol loading and the time evolution of this response. Similarly to the known response of a single cloud, we show that the mean field properties change in a nonmonotonic trend, with a...
