Evaluation of global simulations of aerosol particle and cloud condensation nuclei number, with implications for cloud droplet formation

<p>A total of 16 global chemistry transport models and general circulation models have participated in this study; 14 models have been evaluated with regard to their ability to reproduce the near-surface observed number concentration of aerosol particles and cloud condensation nuclei (CCN), as...
