Investigating relationships between aerosol optical depth and cloud fraction using satellite, aerosol reanalysis and general circulation model data
Strong positive relationships between cloud fraction (fc) and aerosol optical depth (τ) have been reported. Data retrieved from the MODerate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) instrument show positive fc-τ relationships across most of the globe. A global mean f c increase of approximately...
