Short summary
Anthropogenic emissions can influence aerosol particle number concentrations and cloud formation. Our model simulations predict around a 10 % increase in the particle and cloud droplet number concentrations when doubling the emissions in the Manaus region in the Amazonian wet season. However, the corresponding changes in cloud water and rain mass are around 4 %. Such a weak response implies that this convective environment is not sensitive to the localized anthropogenic emission changes here.
