Fig. 1: The correlation between fine aerosol (FA) or coarse sea spray aerosols (CSA) and cloud properties.
From: Fine and coarse aerosols control of cloud water by evaporation-precipitation dynamics
The yellow lines give the dependences of a cloud drop effective radius, b cloud liquid water path, and c cloud fraction as a function of fine aerosol mass concentration (bottom abscissa scale). The blue lines are the same as the yellow lines, but for CSA mass concentration (top abscissa scale). The solid lines connect the dots, which are the averaged cloud properties at 22 bins of fine (yellow) and CSA (blue) aerosol concentrations, respectively, including the 0–1%, 1–3%, 3–5%, 5–10%, 10–15%, …, and 95–100% quantiles. Vertical error bars indicate the standard error, which is too small to be visible.
