Short summary
A key challenge in climate projections is the uncertainty in cloud water response to aerosols, especially from unclear diurnal microphysical-dynamical mechanisms. Geostationary satellite shows that neglecting the diurnal variations leads to an underestimation (up to 89 %) of the cooling effect induced by changes in cloud albedo due to aerosol perturbations. The results provide new insights in aerosol-cloud interactions, verifying this is a significant yet often overlooked source of uncertainty.
