Short summary
Continuous aerosol and cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) measurements carried out at the ground observational facility of a CAIPEEX campaign, situated in the rain-shadow region of the Indian subcontinent, are illustrated. The variations in CCN characteristics within the monsoon period are investigated along with the aerosol physical and optical properties. The change in the dependency of CCN activity on aerosol size and composition due to the variations in air mass and meteorology is brought out.
